Global gastronomy without leaving London

We want to see if it's possible to eat around the globe without leaving the comfort of the capital. So everyone knows the best places once we 'reach' India, China and Mexico but what about Egypt, Iceland, Mongolia, new Zealand and all the others? Let's see if we can create a list of all 200 or so (?) culinary options...and then we can go out and sample them all!

There is a restaurant that I like in particular, it’s called L’Auberge. It is situated on the top floor of Whitgift shopping centre in Croydon.

Their is also a “salon de thé” called La Brioche Dorée at Picadilly.

Also there is a lady from Britanny that comes on Saturday in Croydon for the market to sell delicious pancakes.

I’ve enjoyed good meals at a number of Café Rouges, a couple of Chez Gerrards, and a great evening at The French Table in Surbiton.
