A Taste of Summer in London 2009

Forget soggy salads and warm tap water, summer in London town is a time to indulge in exotic dishes, sizzling barbeques, chilled wines and ice-cold beers. As the sun appears over the horizon, tables and chairs appear on decks, verandas, patios and gardens throughout the capital. From lunchtime liaisons to long languishing evening dates, there's an alfresco dining or drinking option just waiting to be devoured. Get a real taste for the city this summer.
