London Eats: The Cassie Edition

Aside from chowing down at the Indian YMCA, Cassie and I indulged in a few other London dining experiences.

Pizza East

After joining my colleagues for happy hour, Cassie, Jed and I went to Pizza East. The service was great, which for those of you who have eaten in London, know service usually sucks here. The server picked up on the fact that I don't eat pork and stopped us from ordering lamb meatballs which were actually lamb-pancetta meatballs. We ended up sharing two pizza, an order of bruschetta and the bone marrow. The pizza crust was perfect and the only thing missing was a side of honey to drizzle on it. The pizza with egg was interesting and surprisingly complimentary. Another surprise was the way in which the bone marrow was served. Made it much easier to scrape all the yummy goodness out of it and suck on the bone.










The Sunday Roast

Before indulging in the ever so popular high tea experience, Cassie and I met up with Andi, her parents and some friends for a traditional Sunday Roast at the Southwark Tavern near London Bridge. The company and the food were fabulous! We shared an order to save room for tea and thank goodness because it was more than enough for one person!

Sunday Roasts usually consist of some sort of meat, potatoes, veggies, gravy, Yorkshire puddings and stuffing. The toasted kale served with this roast was fantastic!


Most importantly, Cassie got in some real London dining experiences. Stay tuned for the post on our pinkies up high tea!
