After getting my piccolo repaired I was hungry and up for a spot of lunch. Thankfully there were 5 or 6 sandwich shops or cafés around so I picked the nearest one and headed in.
I had a quick look at the selections on offer and feeling in a chicken and sweetcorn mood I plumped for chicken and sweetcorn (surprisingly), with salad on a baguette. There were lots and lots of other fillings to choose from, with lots of mayonnaise mixes as well as normal things on their own. There were seats in the back of the café but I was heading back home to do some revision (yay!) so got it to takeaway, with a slice of their carrot cake, and a drink. It came to a fiver exactly, I paid and headed out.
As I needed to get back north of the river, both to get home and also to get out of South London... I walked towards Westminster Bridge and ate my lunch. The baguette was very nice, lots of filling and wrapped in greaseproof paper which did make it slightly tricky to eat but nonetheless it was very tasty, and good bread as well! The carrot cake was marvellous, a bit dry as it was obviously fairly old and wrapped in cling film, but really good, lots of carrot and nutmeg flavour.
Lovely experience, the lady who served me was very nice and friendly, telling me to take my time and saying she could make any sandwich I fancied, which was great. And the shop itself looked very tidy. So all in all a great lunch, though I'd be up for comparing the other shops in the same street too as they were all packed with customers and so must all be pretty great in their own rights!
