For my last dinner in London on my trip, we decided to have dinner at Brawn in Shoreditch.  Having been introduced to orange wine in Copenhagen and realizing it was something that's pretty hard to find or come by in the United States, we ordered a bottle of oaky orange and paired it with charcuterie, foie gras,and rabbit. 

The food was delicious and decadent, a nice way to close out my vacation.

My first London pub stop was to The Marksman Pub.  Along with beers we grabbed calamari, fish and chips with English peas, and grilled salmon.  Dessert included sticky toffee pudding and a mixed fruit crisp with ice cream. Not a bad introduction to the country and a bit obligatory.
