excellent choice of platters featuring tehir deli range of superb quality foods ideal as a pre theatre meal

I take my illustration students as part of a cultural day trip into London after popping in The Royal Academy. The window displays (especially at this time of year) are always impressive, the decor exquisite and the ambiance sedate and refined - a welcome oasis from the shopping hell that is Oxford Street.
