A Greasy Fry-up – Just What The Doctor Ordered<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jacklyn Swiecicki pays the price for living the good London Night Life <\/em><\/p>\n

As I write this piece, my head is throbbing, my stomach is churning, and I feel as though I could sleep for a hundred years! And yet, I cannot wipe the smug smile off my face. Why you ask? Well no, I don’t have the flu, nor do I have some terrible illness. Rather, I am suffering from the fabulous repercussions of a jam-packed night out sampling London’s phenomenal night life!<\/p>\n

Hence, a greasy fry-up is just what the doctor ordered!<\/strong><\/p>\n

I have cleverly put on my dark sunglasses and walked down to Cafe DK on Wilton Road in Victoria<\/strong>. The menu choices make my decision easy – the Big Breakfast sounds perfect! For \u00a35 you get the whole shebang! Eggs, beans, mushrooms, bacon, chips, sausage, a hash brown and toast. To make up for the high fat-content of this breakfast, the meal is topped off with a grilled tomato. Whilst most diners leave aside this accompaniment, I appreciate it as a breakfast addition, which reminds me of a traditional Aussie brekkie.<\/p>\n

The decor of this cafe is quite simple. The service is no-frills and friendly. And, whilst I feel the tables are too small to handle these massive-sized portions, the food is pretty much simplistic and greasy without trying to be anything more. <\/p>\n

Whilst all of the breakfast options satisfied my cravings, my eggs were served on deep-fried toast – the ultimate in fried food – but it was just a little too much ‘fried’ for me. Whilst Cafe DK is a satisfying, budget-friendly post-party breakfast destination, other scrumptious fry-up options are the American-style diner, Lucky Seven on Westbourne Park Road, W2 or Balans, in Soho (W1D 4UG), which stays open all night to cater to your midnight and mid-morning cravings.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Now that enormous amounts of tasty ‘feel-good’ foods have finally settled my stomach, and I have spent my entire Sunday: sleeping, eating, sleeping and eating – I think I might go and get some sleep.<\/p>\n

Sweet Dreams<\/em><\/p>\n
