Who ate all the pies?

We did. And very nice they were too. If you're ever in the Charlotte Street area, ignore the over-priced "joys" of Roku and Bertorelli's, and head through Percy Passage to Rathbone Street and the Newman Arms. This tiny pub was once the favored drinking spot of George Orwell, but it's real attraction is the pie room upstairs.



Check out this little beauty: I think this was Clive's chicken and gammon pie; I'd dived into my veggie pie before remembering to take a picture. Yes, they're THAT good.



And the prices are very good, too. Eighty quid got us 4 pies, some dessert, two bottles of wine, 3 pints of Stella, and two vodka, lime and sodas. Bargain.
