London Day Two - Bombay Jazz and another Pub

After our late afternoon nap back at the hotel we were ready again to go out and find some dinner on a Wednesday evening in London. We thought we would try some Indian food and I knew from our research that there were some restaurants nearby but one in particular had my attention. We walked up Queen's Gate to Hyde Park and the along the street along the side of the park on Kensington High street to the Dishoom Kensington restaurant.

This Indian restaurant was decorated in a Bombay art deco jazz theme. We had wonderful Indian style tapas dinner. There was live jazz on a balcony stage above the dining area. At some point Becky dropped her jacket which was found by the staff and returned to her. The food was very good. I had a Kingfisher Ultra Indian Lager.

After dinner we walked back toward the hotel we stopped at the Stanhope Arms for a couple of beers. The pub was hopping and full of rowdy football fans watching multiple English Premier League games on multiple screens.

I had a cask pint of Fuller's London Pride bitter. I also had a Pumphouse Pale Ale Cask from Sambrook's Brewery, a London micro-brewery.
