Located in Queen Village, Philadelphia, Royal Sushi and Izakaya is a fun Japanese pub Izakaya specializing in Japanese small plates and sushi with a very strong selection of sake, soju, and imported beers.

The restaurant is easy to miss as it features a red lantern and blue door.  Highly recommended if you're ever in the area and looking for authentic Japanese style food and drink.

To continue my exploration of pubs and fish and chips in London England, I stopped into the Royal Oak for a pint and an order of fish and chips.  For 15 pounds, they offered a beer and an order of fish and chips.  The single fried piece of fish was generous and it was nice presentation albeit a bit expensive in my opinion.  This concluded my sampling of fish and chips across London on this trip. 

The pub scene was fun and there was a good selection of beers, wines, liquor and cocktails.

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.
