Kanada-ya, Piccadily Circus, London (Ramen)

Nearest Tube Station: Piccadily Circus Site:  https://www.kanada-ya.com/  Address:  3 Panton St, London SW1Y 4DL This is their 2nd store the first on is in 64 Saint Giles High Street, London WC2H 8LE, United Kingdom  Rating: 4.5 out of 5 Star Feedback: October 16, 2017 (Monday) As I've said in my  initial review,  "I personally consider this the best ramen I have tasted so far here in London. The soup and noodle was great, thick and tasty. The meat was soft as it should be. The Egg was a bit sweet (not to my liking but some might like it). " I ordered hard ramen which is the recommended one. And this time, I tried the Tonkotsu! Space is bigger than the one in Covent Garden but still tad small For some reason, I didn't have to wait long despite being there at 7 pm. I think the queue is not that bad for both shops from what I heard but normally for this place, it is better because they have more seats. Tonkotsu Ramen With Tan-tan (minced pork)

Winter Wonderland @London

Webpage:   http://www.hydeparkwinterwonderland.com/ Nearest Station: Hyde Park Ratings: 4.5 out of 5 Feedback:  One of the FUNnest things to do over Christmas in London.  It is based on like German Christmas Markets, there are German Sausages, Mulled Wine (Gluehwein), and Bavarian Villages. The only bad thing - London's weather is pretty unpredictable and you can be soaking wet just being there.  Also, when it comes nearer December, the place is soooooooo crowded that it is even hard to get into the place. Some tips: Enjoy German sausages, churros, and Mulled Wine (Gluehwein). German Sausages!! They have Pork Belly too! Mulled Wine Giant German Statue! Entering the Alpen Hotel - it was quite fun though :) Inside the Alpen Hotel

I have conversed with the Spiritual Sun.  I saw him on Primrose Hill. - William Blake 1757 Nearest Tube Station: Chalk Farm Station (Northern Line) Address: Primrose Hill, NW1 UK A very nice place away from tourists (though getting popular now).  It has a good view of London's skyline.  Regent's Park road is a nice place to stroll around and has one of my favorites, the little coffee shop.
