  • Tiktok has made some food and drink in London super famous, but I'm always skeptical. Just because it LOOKS good doesn't mean it tastes good, right? Or that the experience is up to par. So in this video I go to some of London's Tiktok viral food spots and give my honest rating as to whether it's GOOD or just a load of hype.

    • @loveandlondon
      @loveandlondon  2 года назад +1

      The thing is when they give free food, it makes it tricky to honestly rate them. That's why I usually pay for the food and hotels that I review, so I can be super honest!

    Thanks for the great video, Jess! I'm heading to London in September got the first time (!!!) and I really want to try some traditional English desserts while I'm there (Eton Mess, Spotted Dick, Toffee Pudding, etc...) do you have a video of the best place to get these desserts (or would you be willing to make one?!) I'm finding it difficult to find places that serve them during my research into sweet treats!

    Hey Jess. I love your videos very much. They are honest and informative. Love love ❤️❤️
    Thinking about visiting London in near future. So i got a itching question. I am going to travel solo, so if i want to enjoy a nice afternoon tea or if i want to go to a nice restaurant to experience fine dining, how does Londoners see it. Does no one cares about it or does it look pathetic? Do not want to stand out in a crowd 😂

      @stevebarlow3154 2 года назад +1

      @@kindle7191 There are 14 pounds (lbs) in a stone. The measurement dates back to the 15th century and relates to England exporting wool fleeces direct to Florence. I find it easier to comprehend the weight of someone if given in stone and lbs, easier than kilograms and much easier than using lbs only, as the Americans do.

    I wonder how long these places last, on average. I would think the hyper-trendy places would be so short-lived that the lease contracts would eat any initial success. Perhaps there is a trick for grabbing hype profits and running off/breaking lease? I love your fair minded skepticism!
