If you're in Covent Garden, and fancy something nice to eat and drink, I recommend you give Lowlander on Drury Lane a go. The food is your typical pub fayre done well - dishes like Moulles Frites for example. The drink is what this place is really about. They specialize in Dutch & Belgian beer, and have a bewildering menu to choose from; wheaty beer, hoppy beer, fruity beer, monkey beer (or "Trapist" beer as some people wrongly call it). With all this choice, it was cool to see that certain beers were available in 1/3 pint taster glasses to allow you to sample a broader range without getting completely shit-faced. Some of the beers are seriously strong, so I would imagine that if you went there drinking for the evening, a hangover is pretty much guaranteed. For a few mid afternoon ales though, it's great.
Mini Blog
I come across a number of interesting, fun, clever, stupid links on my travels around the internet, but can never be arsed to blog them as it's too much effort. However, Friend Feed has aleviated nearly all of that hassle. So, subscribe to this feed and you'll get all the links that I think worthy of your attention. It will be just like old times, when this blog was nothing but a repository of links to other sites. Anything else I post on the internet, like new photos will also show up in the feed.

Yes, when I worked in Belgium I tried drinking the beer all evening, and you do indeed have a raging hangover in the morning.
For authenticity, I hope that each beer came in a different glass.
