Another Sunny day, and bad pub choices

Blah, blah, blah work stuff during the day. For those asking, Yes, I totally ate the sandwich-in-a-bag, and had no problems the next day. 🙂

Since we were missing home, Shawn found the Kanaloa Tiki Bar in the heart of London. How bad can this be right??? Let’s just say we can’t wait to get back home to the best Tiki bar in the world!

The decorations were cool, and our drinks looked lovely. But they tasted terrible, ick, they were using a pitcher of pre-mixed cocktails and it wasn’t even busy.

Leaving that place, we came across an Irish Pub and figured we’d continue with our non-english evening. The Tipperary claims to be the original Irish Pub of London, and survived the great fire of 1666. I had a great Peated-Ale here, but it was odd that the Irish place was playing the entire Use Your Illusion II cd in the background. (Sorry, no pics)

Down the road a bit we hopped in to a traditional looking pub, but it turned out to be the “Applebys” of London. Shawn tried the Lamb Shank Shepard’s Pie, and it was gross. Instant mashed potatoes, overcooked rubbery lamb, ick.

Worst meal yet here

I played the slot machine for a couple of bucks, but didn’t win.

Last try for the night turned out to be a winner. I’ll try to remember the name later. But it was on a nice little street, and you could stand outside with your beer and enjoy the weather. Ended up talking to a bunch of nice folks from the UK, Ireland, and Scotland.

Finally, a good pub to end the night on

Tonight we’re meeting up with the group from Shawn’s class, so I’ll post some pics from that later. 🙂 Cheerio
