London Restaurant Short-List

I've drawn up a short-list of restaurants I'd like to visit when I'm in the metropolis soon: The Eagle Bar Diner; Sotheby's Café; J Sheekey's; and the Ivy.

I simply cannot be bothered reserving a table for any of them. I'll most likely go at lunch-time and take my chances.

I see that Turandot is playing at the Royal Opera House on Thursday. I may endeavour to buy a day ticket for that; the box office opens at 10am. I shall see what I feel like.
