Some more photos of Mayfair, although the text, about dinner, isn't related, but we haven't stooped to such a tourist level that we take photos at dinner so there will always have to be this text-photo disconnect at dinner time. We had dinner at Nobu's, which I believe originated in New York but now seems to have sprouted in a dozen or so cities around the world. The London version is housed at the trendy Metropolitan Hotel, although this Nobu is much less trendy than the New York version. It looks more like a diner, a sprawling blandly designed place absolutely crammed with customers paying very high prices for pretty good Japanese food. It was packed even on a Sunday night, and the crowd looked like the crowd at McDonald's, big families, lots of kids all noisily enjoying dinner. Not complaining at all about that, but you rarely see a trip to the local sushi restaurant as a kids' favorite in the US.
