luxurious, romantic restaurants. It’s hard to resist splashing out on the exquisite 5-
course menu. The staff are discreet and extremely polite. It’s hardly surprising that the
clients are a mixture of celebrities, business executives and wealthy tourists. Come
here for a memorable dining experience, which will certainly do damage to your bank
account!

2.Yo sushi!
Food: Japanese
Price per person: £10-15
The best known sushi place in town. This restaurant is great both for its raw fish and
its kitsch Japanese décor. Service is efficient and speedy. You can eat delicious sushi
for a few pounds, serve yourself unlimited beer, select food from a conveyor belt and
even have a relaxing head massage! Sometimes there are karaoke nights here. This
restaurant is bright and unromantic but great fun.

3.Amaretto
Food: Italian
Price per person: £15-20
A family-owned restaurant that has faithful clients coming back again and again.
Amaretto offers classic Italian food in warm and friendly surroundings. Whatever time

are well recommended as being tasty and excellent value for money. Great for families
or big groups of friends.

4.Levant
Food: Lebanese/Middle Eastern
Price per person: £20-30
An exotic Middle Eastern restaurant which is perfect for a romantic evening. The
atmosphere is moody and intimate, with lots of candles, soft cushions and coloured
glass lanterns. When you find the entrance, hidden away down a small street, you are
greeted by luscious plants and the smell of incense and exotic perfumes. The menu
offers a feast of authentic Lebanese food for people who like to try something new and
unusual. If you stay late, you will even be able to watch a belly-dancing show!

Food: traditional British pub food
Price per person: £5-10
A dark and smoky pub, which was built in 1780. Come here if you want to taste traditional

service is slow, but this pub serves a good range of beers and ales.
6.Food for Thought
Food: vegetarian
Price per person: £5-10
This tiny colorful vegetarian restaurant and takeaway offers food free of chemicals,
pesticides and preservatives. The food is good and the menu changes every day, but
this place is also great if you just want a coffee. Don’t come here at busy times if you
want a slow, leisurely meal.

7.Café Sol
Food: Mexican
Price: £20-30
Café Sol is a great place to go at any time. Enjoy authentic Mexican cuisine at
lunchtime (watch out for the chilli!) or go for a drink and a dance when it gets dark. The
atmosphere is always buzzing and vibrant, and the food is reasonably priced. On a
Saturday night, the young crowds in Café Sol are usually very loud and merry after
sampling the extensive list of tequilas!

8.The Hard Rock Café

Food: Tex-Mex and burgers
Price per person: £10-20
A genuine celebration of rock ‘n’ roll! This is the original Hard Rock Café, here since the 1970s,
and it’s the first ever theme restaurant. The queue to get in is legendary. You can’t make
reservations and you will find a queue almost all day long, every day of the year. But this

atmosphere, created by rock music, dim lighting and walls covered in rock memorabilia.
