OK2LIFE, let's talk! London tube map and routes

Millenium Bridge

Sun Jul 02 16:22:13 +0100 2006

Spans across the Thames from St. Paul's to the Tate Modern. Although it suffered certain engineering problems when first opened, they have all been rectified now. This is a footbridge and is a great way to cross the river between two famous landmarks.

Brick Lane

Sat Jul 01 22:01:25 +0100 2006

Lovers of spicy food take note, you can not miss a visit to Brick Lane if you are in London. No matter which particular flavour of Eastern cuisine you prefer, Brick Lane has it all. Makes my mouth water just talking about it. What can top a fiery Lamb Nahiri dish washed down with a pint of refreshing Carlsberg and lashings of crackly poppadums at the end of a long day in the office ?

Dockmasters Pub and Restaurant

Sun Jul 02 17:58:13 +0100 2006

What do you do when you and your work colleagues decide to go out for a pint or two at lunchtime and you discover that, because of a nice day, everyone else in Canary Wharf have had the same idea ? Well, there is this little known pub a short walk away from the main stream ones which always guarantees to get you close to the bar after very little attempt. The surroundings is quiet (hence the nickname 'The Graveyard'), and the supplemental food menu is Indian, which is a perfect compliment.

Fifteen Restaurant

Sat Jul 01 21:44:18 +0100 2006

The Fifteen Restaurant Chain was featured in the Channel Four show Jamie's Kitchen. The purpose of Fifteen is to inspire young people to embark on cullinary career. Fifteen is a non-profit venture set up by celebrity chef Jamie Oliver. Look up more information at www.fifteenrestaurant.com

Alexander Fleming Laboratory Museum

Sun Jul 02 12:56:45 +0100 2006

Penicillin was discovered here by Sir Alexander Fleming in 1928, which scores a great victory against infectious bacterial infections. The official website is www.st-marys.nhs.uk

Roman Road Market

Mon Jul 03 21:24:54 +0100 2006

In the middle of the Eastend's Tower Hamlet is this old market with a French twist. This used to be the main road for the Roman to get to Londinium, but is now put ot good use for the descendants of Queen Boudicea.

James Smith & Sons Umbrella Shop

Sun Jul 02 08:56:52 +0100 2006

It rains in London, everyone knows that. Next time it does, makes sure you own an umbrella that not only withstands the rigours of the Elements, it also has style! Try James Smith and Sons Umbrella shop, which has an eye popping range of the best, the most beatiful, and the sturdiest of umbrellas. You can also get a walking stick here while you are about it. Check out their extensive range at their website

Viet Grill - The Vietnamese Kitchen

Sun Jul 02 12:26:22 +0100 2006

This is a new Vietnamese restaurant in the Kingsland Road. So far the reviews are good. Definitely worth a visit.

Highgate Cemetery

Sat Jul 01 21:26:40 +0100 2006

It is not usual to recommend a Cemetery as a point of interest, but this Cemetery is different to the rest. Unique in London, it houses the bust of Karl Marx, the father of Socialism. Find out more about Highgate Cemetery here

Belgo Centraal Restaurant

Sun Jul 02 09:30:56 +0100 2006

I love Moules Mariniere, and what can be better than washing that down with a bottle of the finest cherry beer ? Try out Belgo, the famous Belgian Restaurant which serves the finest continental steak and kilos of mussels marinated in white wine. Belgian beers need no introduction for the connoisseurs, but a bucket of Hoegaarden will do fine for me, thank you. Not sure why the waiters all dress up as monks though.
