Why London still rules the dining world

1. Our chicken shops are to die for.

2. Yeah you lost me at the Brick lane Bagel.

3. Ikea hotdogs doing gods work 🙏

4. Most major cosmopolitan cities will have a variety of dining in their central areas.

   Irrelevant article just to make readers feel better about themselves.

   Granted there is a good choice of eateries in London but it’s certainly not unique or special.

5. So am on holiday down in Bangkok. Not sure this actually holds water. Things here are pretty cool, fast moving, cutting edge. Not really sure London’s up to it, and saying that makes me sad.

6. All the pearl clutchers crying about the death of pubs all over London when in reality consumption habits just changed, gen z doesn’t drink as much as other generations and there’s more demand for good restaurants and gastro pubs. All the pubs that I’ve been to 10 – 15 years ago have either revamped their menus to higher quality food or died.

7. London restaurant scene isn’t as good as Dublin, Frankfurt or Paris

8. I just had the best chicken katsu curry.

9. Ergh, I don’t deny London has the diversity and is of itself a culinary universe, but [standard.co.uk](http://standard.co.uk) clearly hasn’t ever been to Tokyo; where you can get a filling, nutritious meal for less than £4. The same level in London would easily be a £30+ affair per head.

   Granted, you’ll be hard-pressed to find a Lebanese or Nigerian restaurant to the same London standards, but the restaurants they do do well (Japanese, Brazilian, even their bastardised European restaurants) are all extremely good value for money. And cooked well.
