3/5

The second day of walking around London for hours upon hours, I decided it was time to eat, it wasn't the first time I had eaten in days, but was the first I though I would do a review for...

Probably should have said I was eating in...

I managed to find a cheapish bakery in centralish London, not far from the trendy Camden markets, where I got the above treats the day after the Olympic opening at Hyde park. Duran Duran were cool, although the rest were a little MOR. Was pretty cool to see the opening amongst so many people (50,000 I think were there maybe?) although there were no fireworks where we were and I didn't really understand the jet-planes flying over and doing the French  flag (or Russia/Holland... pending on your perspective).

Nothing excites me as much as a field of litter.

The pizza was a good filler (albeit only a luke-warm one (that funny temperature that make you think "has this been warmed in the microwave or just left in the sun" (perhaps the worst temperature to eat sushi at))) after browsing the British Museum. It took about 2hours to get through world history from 2000bc to only 20ad. Might have to go back and see what relics the English have nicked from the rest of the world over the last 2000 years. There was just a bit too much to take in in one day after yet more coffee disappointment... (ordered an Americano at the cafe, their interpretation of Americano is a black coffee, London might be teh most inconsistent places for a coffee in the civilised world)

One thing that has been bugging me as I was biting down on the pretzel that tasty much like a cinnamon doughnut was that why Olympians when they win feel the need to bite on their medals?! Historically miners would bite down on gold, as it's a fairly soft metal to tell if it was the real deal (I'd imagine it'd bend or you could leave a mark) but none of the medals are made from gold (the gold medal is made from silver if this site is to be believed) it's just silly, unless they're real hungry after training, which then is understandable.

Anyway the food was good, although somewhat standard bakery fair, nothing to get excited about and certainly nothing worth wearing holes in the soles of you shoes to get.
