The plan was Wimbledon, then Putney for a concert, but it was awful day, change of plan, Charing Cross Road, hit the bookshops (the Quest for NeverSeconds continues), eat at Food for Thought, then Putney for Il Siglo d’Oro.
I had wanted stir fried vegetables with rice, but either they had run out or did not have. I settled for quiche with salad. Only you could not have quiche with one salad. It was ether no salad or four salads. A bit of flexibility is needed. I was allowed as special dispensation quiche with one salad.
Both the quiche and salad were very good. The quiche excellent, best quiche I have ever had.
For dessert strawberry, kiwi fruit, banana and blackcurrant scrunch. I could have had fresh fruit salad, a scone, flapjack.
Plus a small pot of tea. The tea as always awful.
Having had no lunch, I ate early. As I was leaving it was getting busy, a queue backing up the stairs.
I am pleased to say it was better than when the week before I had lunch at Food for Thought which was something of a disappointment and not up to their usual high standard.
To Covent Garden Station. I thought I might have time for Piccadilly, but no time. It was time to set off for Il Siglo d’Oro in Putney

I’m glad to hear at least the quiche was excellent 🙂
Oh my, I thought most of the bookstores would have a bunch of NeverSeconds stocked by now…!

Food for Thought is one of the best places to eat in London!
I am sorry to say there is something very very wrong with our book stores. NeverSeconds, a book with masses of good publicity, a potential best-seller, and yet not on display, not in stock and the staff have never heard of it!
