I was first time in London (if not to count endless waitings in airport
transit area) and my hotel was on Strand. At last in that area even
McDonalds what I don't like would be 6-7 pounds for food-coffee. And
some piece in food you just want if you are not vegetarian. Less than
10 pounds was sandwitch and coffee in British Museum (4.80 + 2.70 if I
remember)
