    There's a tasty greasy spoon/italian next to russell square station, or at least there was

    I noticed King's Cross' Flying Scotsman is no longer. Sad scenes

    I went in one of those not long ago. Don't know if it's the same place.

    the bloke in there was treating me like I was some sort of regular.
    shaking my hand, asking me how I've been

    This keeps happening actually

    All the caffs around St Giles are Italian these days.

    Best breakfast in the area is Giovanni's in Museum Street.

    I think there used to be more Greek Cypriot and Turkish places

    towards Holborn. But certainly always lots of Italiana in Fitzrovia.
