Review of Hamleys Of London
18 May 07, 09:24
Fantastic toys 
Quite simply the best shop in the world. Hamleys is a toy shop, and so technically aimed at kids, but I defy any adult to go there and not have a great time. Hamleys sells fantastic toys for all age ranges and all types. Simply the best toy shop around!

Review of Selfridges
16 May 07, 13:09
Great department store
Selfridges is a fantastic department store, and this one on Oxford Street is it's flagship store. It sells pretty much anything you need , but everything is top end, and so expensive. The food court is amazing; it offers everything from the Veuve Cliquot bar to Krispy Kreme doughnuts. Some of the clothes are good, but mostly out of my price range. There is a great range of jewellery, make up and perfume.

Review of Primark
15 May 07, 19:49
Dirt cheap clothes
Primark is possibly my favourite clothes shop. Clothes aren't very well made, and do have a tendency to fall apart-BUT, they are just so cheap!! Primark recreates all of the latest fashions at rock bottom prices , it's not usual to buy a dress or pair of trousers for £8. Who cares if they fall apart a few months later, you can still afford to buy it again, only in the latest fashion!

Review of Le Sacre Coeur
15 May 07, 17:52
Fantastic French Food
Sacre Coeur is a small, intimate French restaurant just of Angel's Upper Street. It serves up delicious, rich French food, having a separate lunch and dinner menu. The french onion soup is a must have, and the steak-frites is delicious. Washed down with a caraffe of very good value french wine, it is possibly the ideal meal. The atmosphere is quite romantic, but definitely relaxed. One of my favourite restaurants.

Review of One Aldwych
12 May 07, 16:10
Great restaurant, bar and hotel
One Aldwych is a bar, restaurant and hotel right in the heart of London. The lobby bar is very smart, as is the restaurant. The food is expensive but delicious. It's worth booking a while in advance. The decor of the building is very different; modern but not minimal like so many other bar/restaurants.

Review of Preposterous Presents
08 May 07, 15:17
Fancy dress and joke presents
Preposterous Presents is ideal for joke gifts and accessories. The range of little tricks (like soap that makes your hands black) is great, and there are also loads of games and fancy dress items, like masks and fairy costumes. The amouunt of rude presents is enough to keep you laughing for hours, and the birthday cards are hilarious.

Review of Sausage and Mash Cafe

Sausage and Mash
Quite simply the best sausage and mash you will ever eat. S&M's interior is American diner style, with quirky details. The menu comprises of every conceivable type of sausage, a few types of mash, and a few types of gravy. This mix and match style of ordering ensures you get exactly what you want. My personal favourite is the toad in the hole. The coffee is also great. S&M gets very busy at the weekend, so call ahead for a table. The service is great and the food reasonably priced. Without fail my friends and I visit S&M following every heavy night out, and it's the best hangover cure I've come across!
