Putting the "In" in "Gin"

I like to taste the gin rather than disguise it with sweet mixers so I'm a classic Gin Martini with olives girl but I can be swayed by a Gin & Tonic (Plymouth's). I had a brief flirtation with a Negroni made with dry Vermouth last December and I love sloe gin fruit poured over ice cream.

London/Paris

London: Indian food is awesome here. One of the best restaurants is Diwana Bhel Poori House, Drummond Street in Euston, a wooden-table vegetarian place specialising in Dosas. It's been an institution for over 30 years, frequented by University of London tutors, office workers and foodies alike and it's really cheap.
At the other end of the price scale is the beautifully decorated Rasa Samudra on Charlotte Street where the cuisine is southern Indian: seafood, fish and vegetarian dishes.
For really good Modern British food try Bankside, Southwark Bridge Road, in Blackfriars for traditional dishes like sausage and mash and apple crumble with custard.
