My First Pub Experience!
We went to a near-by pub named “The Phoenix” for Lunch. It was me and about 6-7 girls. The Phoenix was very much was I expected it to be. Nearly everything seemed to be made of wood. There were benches and chairs everywhere and a large bar which doubles as where we order our meal. I orders Steak pie with chips which was a large piece of pie backed into a pie crust accompanied by French fries and peas. The food was surprisingly good smothers in rich gravy. The meal was a well priced about 5 pounds (around 8 dollars), which is fairly typical. The place had several pool tables as well as Flat screen TV’s to watch the football (soccer) games.

Ramzi, this is so cool! Go figure, I didn't even know you were going to London. It's going to be so fun to read about your experiences!
ReplyDeleteNo clue you were going but am so envious I could absolutely die!! Live it up and eat a lot of chocolate for me okay? Oh, and alert Buckingham Palace that my move in date is scheduled for January 2013. Just post graduation. Thanks dahling!
ReplyDeletep.s. I bet if you picked up a British accent you'd get all the babes that are there with you! You know all the cute girls go to London :)
Have so much fun over there Ramzi!
ReplyDeleteIf you're there long enough then you'll be there for Prince William's Wedding and that's neat to be there for that.
What's a mailing address for you so that I can send you letters/maybe something small from the states?
Have fun!! :)
6-7 girls! Ramzi we have to talk.
ReplyDeleteAhh the British Pub, such a fun experience. Way better than what we have in the states. What you ordered sounds delicious, I am envious!! Although not the culinary masters like France or Italy, the British have darn good food. I always loved the Cornish Pasties for a quick bite. Sometime that you are in a pub you should order another personal favorite, Spotted Dick next time you are at a pub, just to see what you companions reaction will be ;o) It is a Delicious bread pudding dessert!! Then there is the quintessential Fish and Chips
