Cuisine
In London, reasonably priced traditional fare can be found at a local
pub (stilton cheese, steak and kidney pie, haggis and Cumberland
sausages). Fish-and-chips and curry are staples. Visit Harrods in
London to sip afternoon tea with finger sandwiches and scones or sample
international cuisine at a variety of ethnic restaurants.
French
cuisine is a national (and international) obsession done with style and
flair. Croissants and café au lait begin the day, followed by
delicacies such as rich meat stews, baguettes, foie gras, pâté,
escargot, cured meats, cheeses and truffles. French wines and coffees
are some of the finest in the world.
