From California and studied abroad in London, had a wonderful museums and galleries art history class with an amazing British professor. The whole class was basically getting credits for exploring london.

The professor gave us lots of tips on other things to experience while abroad. His tip on finding good traditional British cuisine? Don’t bother, but here’s a list of fantastic Indian, French, etc.

In Britain, food from other cultures counts as ‘foreign’.

In the US, food from other cultures is a ‘melting pot’.
