We tried a waffle from one of the many waffle stores here in Brussels. I tried strawberry and chocolate, A2 tried raspberry and chocolate with a little bit of cream and dad had a plain chocolate one. They were all €4-5 each. There’s also a waffle store chain which sells the waffles out of vans. [gallery columns="2" type="rectangular" ids="2205,2207,2206,2204"]...

By the time we checked into our hotel in London it was 6 something. A2 just wanted to finish her beef sandwich and eat fruits for dinner, so mum, dad and I went out alone. Mum and dad were going to dine in an Indonesian restaurant, so I got a lamb kebab (₤3.50) from a Lebanese restaurant a few doors down. It turned out that the owner used to live in Hawthorn in Melbourne, so he and mum and dad chatted for a while. After ordering their food...

Before leaving Bath we bought lunch from M&S and I got an extra sandwich (Scottish smoked salmon and butter for ₤3) from Pret, a chain which makes fresh sandwiches, rolls, sushi and coffee. From M&S A2 bought an avocado salad and ranch beef sandwich, I had a chicken breast and mangetout salad with lemon dressing sandwich, mum had a tuna roll and dad got an apple turnover and raisin scroll (mangetout are like sugar snap peas without the peas inside).[gallery order="DESC" link="file" columns="2" ids="2185,2186,2183,2184"]...

For morning tea, we visited Sally Lunn’s teahouse to try her world-famous buns. When we arrived there was a queue, but we only waited for 10 minutes before we were directed to the top floor. Mum and I shared a coffee and walnut, A2 had cinnamon butter and dad had ginger butter. All were around ₤3.50. The nicest was the cinnamon one. There were also savoury buns available. The buns look like burger buns, but taste semi-sweet. [caption id="attachment_2191" align="aligncenter" width="400"] Coffee and Walnut, Cinnamon Butter and Ginger Butter...

We were going to have dinner at O’Neils because it was cheap, but children weren’t allowed in and it was too crowded and too much like a bar. Instead, we went to another pub called The Grapes, which also had really cheap food. I got a beef burger (two 4oz patties, mushroom, onion rings and salad instead of chips)(₤4.89), A2 had an asparagus and brie tart with salad (₤4.69), mum got a mixed grill (4oz runp steak, 5oz gammon steak, chicken breast, sausage, beans, mushrooms and two fried...
