Afternoon Tea at The Ritz
(London)
I know, I know. Cliche!! But seriously, just imagine this : opulent decor, live pianist, miniature towers of endless miniature sandwiches and sugary confections, exotic hot teas, and only the most magnificent scone/clotted cream marriage you've ever encountered. Treat yourself.
I hated scones until I had a real one at the Ritz.
The tea was out of this world. Back in the real world, I drink this lesser (but still amazing) tea.
(Camberley area)
It's a toss up. 'The Raj' as we like to call it, was our local curry house. The Mogul was nearby too. Both are amazing hole-in-the-wall type places. So good I stuff myself every time. I felt like Veruca Cruz (blueberry girl) from Willy Wonka, so full you have to roll me out of the restaurant because I could burst at any moment.
As my hubby always says, 'You can't beat a good cuzza.' So true.

I swear my husband must be getting so annoyed with me by now. Every time we go back to England I make up some reason why I need to be at or around the Piccadilly Circus area during a day trip into the City. Just so I can indulge in some cheap, fresh, authentic and very yummy Japanese.
The list goes on, but I'll stop there for now. Just let it soak in like a warm naan in masala sauce. What and where are your favorite restaurants?
