Here's the chef at Roast with the roast beef he fixed us.
We had Ian Luck as our driver again today, and started out with a tour of some of the London trousity sights. We saw and shot Big Ben and Parliament (got stopped by the police there), saw the changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace, walked through St. James Park, and wandered around outside Westminister Abbey. Our 1st restaurant of the day was at a hotel called Montague on the Garden, which had a big deck in back with a BBQ and they made hamburgers and steaks and at least a little bit of that will make it into the show I'm sure. That was in the Bloomsbury area, and then we made our way to a restaurant called Roast, where we filmed the preparation and cooking of English roast beef and Yorkshire pudding. The whole process takes time, so we were there for several hours and had time to enjoy some Scotch eggs while we waited for the roast to cook. The chef, Lawrence, was really fantastic and had a great sense of humor. Ian joined us for dinner and we ate our roast beef and Yorkshire pudding feast in our pretty underdressed garb considering the restaurant's clientele and
