Good morning!
Oh dear, I can feel a bit of a ramble coming on!!
Ok, we're in Surrey and about 12 miles from central London so I suppose our prices are slightly above average for the UK.
We only ever eat breakfast out when we're on holiday and that averages about £8 for a 'full English'.
I
love eating lunch out. I take my mum out for lunch once a week - usually to a pizza/pasta-y place which averages out at £15 per head including starter and a 'soft' drink.
Andy and I often go out for Sunday lunch, usually to a 'typical English pub' a couple of miles away. Beams, log fires, squashy leather - you know what I mean!!
It has
the best Sunday roast I've ever eaten (and I've had thousands!) - the main is approx. £12 but is so gorgeous and filling that you really don't need starters etc. It's also very dog-friendly so we can take Harry and while away the hours with (their!) newspapers and a glass of vino next to the fire. Heaven!
As for dinner - well, we went to one of Jamie Olivers restaurants the other night and we were actually very pleasantly surprised, both at the price and the quality. Usually these 'chef-y' restaurants are a real rip-off. However, this worked out at £40 a head for starter, main meal and desert including a bottle of wine
All beautifuly cooked with wonderful, fresh ingredients.
Going into central London however is quite a different story!
