Test of faith time! I'm asking all my readers to band together for a culinary rescue. My friend, Mark, has just moved to London and boy is he hungry. He could spend the next few months wandering all over the place and eating the good, the bad, and the scary... or you can help him by leaving a comment to this post with your favorite London eatery.
So have at it! Extra points to those who list late-night spots for Mark, the night owl, across the pond.

If he has access to an oven, go to Raw Wally's Pizza, just outside shepherd's bush (it's googleable). You get a delicious pizza to take home and bake. If he's the kind of person who likes wandering around markets trying delicious wares try Borough Market, near Southwark (South of the Thames). For more hungry-on-the-way home kind of digs, there's a place around the corner from the Hyde Park LDS Chapel (no idea what it's called) which sells the most delicious hummus (I don't even like hummus) and kebabs. Best bakery I've come across yet = Gails, in hampstead on the high street. The pastries are practically French and the hot chocolate is good too.
Since I've only just moved here, I don't really know what's good for curry's/take-outs, but I'll add comments if I come across anything!
Great tips, Naomi! I can't wait until you discover more!
Jessie told me of another place that I'm going to add on here. Here's a what she said:
"There's also a great middle eastern restaurant just south of oxford st, where tottenham court rd ends. It's called Kaslik."
Here are a few suggestions for places to eat in London. If you want to have a fancy lunch or dinner, try China Tang at the Dorchester Hotel. It's near Grosvenor Square. Celebrities are spotted here all the time. If you are looking for a moderately fancy British breakfast, have breakfast at the Wolseley Hotel is not too expensive (about $20 per person). It's between the palace and Piccadilly. I also really enjoyed Wagamamas, it's a really cute noodle house and pretty cheap. Good luck Mark!
