"If once you get,get to London, you will recognize that it became one of those cities, where the nicest, but unfortunately, the most expensive restaurants, one can find. So, here are a few tips for you, where you can go, what you can do, if you're in London, but you're on a tight budget. First of all, search for the take outs, the take away units, because on the take out food, the VAT is not collected. However, on the other types of restaurants, if you're getting the simple average restaurant, you will see that the prices are much higher, than in the take away unit, not only because their food is a little better, and because they are more elegant, but because the value added tax is on the price. If one date, you get in a pub in London, you have to order a pint of ale or lager. It's really cool. And you're going to be served with either a nice appetizer, which might be a main dish as well, if it's rich. Or you're going to be served with nice sandwiches in the pubs. The pubs anyway, are fairly inexpensive, and they're comfortable places. The other suggestion of ours, is to search for the fish 'n chips places, because the fish 'n chips, is somehow, equal to the English people. If you are standing on the streets, and take a deep breath, and you smell rancid oil, you just have to follow it. And, in the end, you will see that you are in the middle of a small take away unit, where they sell fish 'n chips. Eat ethnic in London. It's cheap, and it's really, really nice. Far eastern, middle eastern, Indonesian, Mexican, or maybe Spanish food, on your way, is really inexpensive. No problem if you're not vegetarians. Just get in a vegetarian restaurant, and order for a big meal, because you don't have to pay them that much money, and the vegetarian restaurants, near to Covent Garden are really nice and tasty. And, anyway they're really famous."
