Breakfast & Brunch

Let's spice up our Sunday with heart warming food and a fairly long, lazy walk. We are heading to East London for an authentic Malaysian brunch followed by a scenic 5+ mile stroll through two of London's best green spaces. A rich Malaysian brunch (think flaky roti canai, fragrant nasi lemak, and comforting laksa). A 5-to-6 mile "I Spy" walk through the iconic Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park and vibrant Victoria Park. Relax, chill and have a good day out! Weather permitting! And near many Tfl public transport network, if you wish to leave anytime.

We've been here a few times before - how about a nice summer's lunch at Gordon Ramsay's Street Pizza, close to St Paul's Cathedral ... just £20 per person for a 90-minute bottomless pizza lunch? Basically the waiters bring round a selection of pizzas with different toppings one by one, you either have a slice from that, or wait for the next one. And they keep doing that for 90 minutes! I have secured a table for 10, so don't miss out on this fun lunch! Please do not take a firm place if you plan on withdrawing late or no-showing. I am removing people from this group completely who have a habit of doing this. If people are interested we can have a drink or two in a local pub afterwards, or visit one of the many cake shops in the area. https://www.gordonramsayrestaurants.com/en/uk/street-pizza/menus/standard Full address: Gordon Ramsay's Street Pizza, St Paul's Branch, 10 Bread Street, London, EC4M 9AJ.
