There is a really good pad thai stall called Newdlez that does Lower Marsh near Waterloo and Tatchbrook Street near VIctoria (and a few others I think). I had a very nice dinner at Champor-Champor in London Bridge just before Christmas. The most tender beef rendang and a green curry with immense king prawns.

There's also the Rail House Cafe which has just opened opposite Victoria station, same people as Riding House Cafe but I think a smaller menu.

Beavertown has announced it's closing down Duke's Brew and Que in Haggerston, one of the only good BBQ places in London. RIP best burnt ends and mac & cheese

Where's good for dim sum? Looking for somewhere not too expensive, preferably with soup dumplings.

We ended up going to Dumpling's Legend. Good dim sum, maybe not the cheapest but very enjoyable.

Kappacasein for the raclette is always a top choice at Borough market, or the chorizo sandwich from Brindisa.

Yeah there's Cheeky Chicos near Blackfriars, it's not as good as I remember Piccante being, but it kind of hits the spot. For authentic Mexican rather than Tex-Mex there's Santo Remidio, Breddos and El Pastor.

I went to the Marksman pub in Hackney for a Sunday roast yesterday. Not cheap, but very good. They do this amazing steamed bun that's like a char siu bun but but filled with bacon or minced lamb, which was a highlight. Very popular on the weekends.

The Southbank Centre is cavernous enough that you can find some napping space in there.

Just returning to Mexican briefly, I would agree that the El Pastor London Bridge branch is not ideal, would probably choose the Kings Cross one for a sit-down meal. Haven't tried their Soho branch. They used to also have an arch at Maltby Street that was great for a taco and a beer but hasn't reopened since lockdown. Ironically I think they used to sell their mexican cheese along with tortillas and other ingredients there. Santo Remedio is nice, their barbacoa lamb shank is delightful and they do a great marg. Quite expensive though. Mestizo near Euston I remember being fun, they do a Thursday beer and tacos dance night. I haven't found good tex-mex anwhere. Seems to be a real blindspot for some reason. Does anyone have any opinions on seafood boil restaurants. Pelican State, Claw & Hammer etc. I wouldn't mind a giant plate of seafood soon.

My in-laws are coming over from America and I need to find a restaurant for a meal to celebrate my MIL's retirement. Preferably family-style italian (but open to other cuisines) that's relatively affordable but still fancy enough in ambiance and service that it feels like a special occasion. Any ideas?

We ended up going to Ffiona's in Kensington which does a pretty nice traditional British menu. Chicken kiev, fish and chips, sticky toffee pudding etc. I had a steak that was better than I was expecting. Place is cosy and the staff are friendly. Don't know if I'd go back too often but it was a fun atmosphere to take out-of-towners to.

I can second that, I used to date a girl in Richmond and that was our breakfast spot. I miss having a reason to go there.

There's a Flat Iron on Tooley Street. That's my go-to.
