Where To Go When The Weather’s Being British
"Arriving at Victoria coach station you’d think the “British experience” was takeaway bags of Leon, pelting rain, and the Megabus mascot. But don’t lose heart. A short walk away is La Poule Au Pot. It’s stuffed to the wooden beams with baskets of dried flowers, hanging grape decorations, yellowing framed prints, and well-dressed groups sipping wine as though it’s a gathering in one of their second-home farmhouses. The charming French restaurant was practically made for miserable days. And the food is just as transportive and wholesome—wine-infused beef bourguignon and perfectly cooked guinea fowl, all served with vegetables that are heavy on butter and bacon.
