We ventured to the wilds of London for the Kapow Comic Book Convention. Specifically Islington (where I came down with the plague) one of my favourite burger joints was discovered last year called Byron (http://www.byronhamburgers.com/menu/) I highly recommend it if you are in the area. However do avoid what they call American Cheese, it's really sweat collected from real cheese and made into orange plastic slices.
The best thing in my opinion about Byron's is they serve A&W Root beer! True I paid £2.85 for a can but damn was it worth it.
There is a place in Leeds that says it serves Root beer but it's not A&W.
We also hit Pizza Express where I felt obligated to have an American Pizza, which is Pepperoni Pizza and a Chinese restaurant where I had Sweet & Sour Tofu.
I also went into a Kebab place (alone, armed with a knife as always) for some chips.
Cyber Candy was also at Kapow, however I was disappointed by the selection this year. I ended up with a 3 Musketeers Bar and a Twinky (£2.90 for both). I was hoping for odd M&M's or at least Pop Tarts.
The best thing about the weekend was the Root beer.
I love A&W Root Beer.
ReplyDeleteIt's my favorite. Though Barqs is good in a pinch.
