Guidebook for London
Food Scene
Dishoom has an incredible decor, which transports you to a nineteenth century Bombay railway station. We love breakfasts there, with bottomless house chai and good wifi if you have some emails to catch up on. From early evening the place is humming with people to eat from their main menu. The Daal is incredible.

If the Albion doesn't have a table, walk around the corner to The Drapers Arms. Better range of beers than the Albion, fewer tables though. Does an incredible Sunday roast if you book a table ahead of time!
