Trip to London - any ideas

[vw misfit]

Hi

Im travelling to London on 19 Nov to go to Steve Ignorant gig at Sheperds Bush. However when I book tickets I book the eary train so will get to kings Cross for around noon. I have about 5-6 hours to fill so was after suggestions on things to do in London. Dont really what to do usual tourist things like trafalgar square, buck place.

Any intresting ideas would be appreicated.


Ps any one else going to gig

Have a look around Covent Garden Market and get in a fight with a mime 'artist'.

If you want free things then there's several museums you can visit, also, the Saatchi gallery is good (not as good as it was before it burned down though) but as it's a Saturday it's probably all going to be quite busy.

If I finally manage to get to London some day, I will certainly want to check out the SAF restaurant.

Best regards,
Andy

Go to Vx for a cupcake while you're at Kings Cross! :P

You can also go to Camden Town and visit InSpiral Lounge - yummy vegan food, desserts & drinks. I have to visit London as often as possible because I am addicted to that place!!!

Lots of ideas!! First,., inamo. It's not a vegan restaurant-but great options. And so cool!!! Then. Mildred's !! Amazing!! Also SAF... Outstanding and wonderful (if a bit far). And hummus brothers. And the other little place near hummus brothers on wardour street. Lol. I have more ideas if you want them. Oh- all but SAF are walking distance from trafalgar or Leicester square. Of all of these - inamo is my first choice for cool, SAF for amazing. Oh - and vanilla black is kind of forgettable. A little too ... Something
