Busaba Eathai

Easily the best Asian food I've ever had this Saturday night, a cool Thai restaurant off the West End.  So authentic that we all got to experience chopsticks for the first time.  A bit surprising that we all made it through without any serious issues..  And then after our dinner experience it was off to a Blues Bar, Ain't Nothin But the Blues, to see a blues group.. That was cool, much smaller than the House of Blues, but pretty awesome.. minus it being a bit packed.  

oh, and the gelato I had in Budapest, some crazy Italian flavor, happened to be at a Cafe on the Thames.  Needless to say, jackpot when I saw that. 

Sunday was a fun day of exploring with no working tube stations, and a trip through Covent Garden's Arts & Craft market.  There I upon a wonderful little crepes place.. not exactly Waffle Sunday from back at school, but pretty close.  

The trip ended after mass with a little stop into Harrod's.. That place was massive, and you literally could buy anything you ever wanted there, though for a ridiculous price. Sadly, I did not pick up any souvenirs there, so that I can afford to eat the next 3 months

  1. You can buy live elephants out of Harrod's catalog. Perfect for the Pangborn-Fisher courtyard.

  2. I expect souvenirs. Lots of ivory souvenirs.

    Also, first time ANY OF YOU have used chopsticks before? Patrick, I know ND is sheltered, but come on.
