Just be sure you have a big freezer. You need to buy quite a few to make it worthwhile

You're a very dangerous lady to know. I'm actually heading to NYC with expat friends, of which some are from Oz and NZ. They will really appreciate this link.

From the style of the place, we took it for granted that it was part of a chain, but according to their website they're only in three locations around DFW.

Not of any use to you in Indy (unless you have them send you a very cold and congealed take-out!) but hopefully of interest to my fellow metroplex inhabitants.
I have been to the Londonder Pub in Addison Tx
Reasonably authentic food but great range of English beer on tap
Great place to see the latest UK football games
Also found this link that shows many Tea Rooms and Pubs in USA

Hope this helps

We found the new fish and chips shop in Easton on Saturday, its called Southampton Fish and Chips on N 4th street. Its owned by a bloke from London with his partner and they are soon opening another one in Bethlehem, PA.

They do cod, haddock and other fish as well as pastys (or should that be pasties?) The chips were pretty good and the fish was the best we have had in the US so far.

You can find details at www.MenuLizard.com
