re: Living in London?

Yeah, of course you can find some good food, but it's typically from Italy, China, India, Middle East, etc. I was probably being unfair and overgeneralizing, but I was mainly getting at the fact that their default cuisine is pretty appalling.

You can obviously seek out some good international stuff if you make an effort. But the OP wouldn't be on vacation, and if he's looking to just get something that's reasonably priced and fast on a weeknight, they don't exactly have a solid offering.

Also, I'm not much of a foodie, so I guess that's another reason I have a different view.
