We have a local Mexican restaurant...San Marco's. Voted best in the city by national food critics. The only restaurant I have gone to in years that I actually ate everything.
I don't go out to eat a whole lot but if I do it's usually at the truck stop. It's the only 24 hour place in town unless a cook or server doesn't show up, then it's closed at night.
Kellies Pie & Mash shop in Hackney Road east London......They serve Jellied Eels as well and they are listed in Egon Ronay good food guide .....:( Now all the City of London high fly business Twerps frequent the place and have ruined it a bit.... :(
Our local fish house is really the only place I care about patronizing. The fish and shrimp come out of the gulf and they cook it up and my oh my it is wonderful. They serve me more shrimp than I can eat. The haddock and cod are both excellent. And, get this...........the shrimp is $8.95. I am a eat what I prepare person generally but I like to go out for fish sometimes. If I didn't I would never eat it because I will not touch raw fish. As far as steaks and burgers, the ones off of our grill can't be beat!
