Broome & Delancey - American style
— A casual place that reflects a New York menu rather than a London one. For a change there quite a variety on the Kid's menu, macaroni and cheese of course but also Albacore Tuna salad, grilled free-range chook and of course a hot dog but this one is a smoked Toulouse hot dog with fries!

Best Dim Sum – New World
— Or Yum Cha it is otherwise known, is great for families and couples seeking a different Sunday brunch. I love mine served by the trolleys, even though you always order more than you can possibly eat and can’t resist stretching your neck to see what the next trolley has to offer. This restaurant is one of the more traditional ones for Dim Sum. Normally only served between 11.30-2.30pm, this one offer an all Yum Cha service until 5.30pm.
