Loads of fry ups with proper bread and lashings of butter.
Loads of good fresh veggies, just not the same here
A real curry, Chutney Mary's in London, well worth a visit if anyone going to London any time soon, warning very expensive
Afternoon Tea at the Ritz!
Smiths of Smithfields, very good and very well priced
Real Chinese
Loads of Mark's goodies, yum, yum
London Pride, my favorite tipple and proper Irish Coffee with real cream!

Not been to Chutney Mary's, have been to Tamarind a few times which is fantastic - if pricey.
Whenever I go back I have to get my Yo Sushi fix as well as a large box of Laduree Macaroons.

London Pride
You can get bottles of Spitfire here in AD. Not quite the same but it's a start....

if you liked tamarind, chutney marys' is about the same (and arguably better depending on your preference). there's also porte des indes near marble arch that has a great sunday brunch (indian and french, go figure) well washed down with a bunch of kingfishers... *sigh* it's only 9am and could seriously go a pint...
