as appetising as the menu might seem, you might want to take a backseat on ordering these first - yes, as my title screams, its ice cream! no you read it right, what you see below is Ciao, a gelataria which not only serves the very sumptous savoury versions of the italian favourites, but also the sweet cold gelate imitations you see in the menu below. lasagne, spaghetti, fried eggs - MmMMMMmm...
 italian spaghetti and fried eggs anyone?   sliced apricots with vanilla ice cream and cherries

i forgot bout taking a picture of the menu and we only had one ice cream between ourselves cos it was god-damn muthafucking hugeeee. (the ones below are mine)
 After eight, mint and choc chip ice cream    i could practically hide behind this gigantic thing!
located behind leceister square, its a great stop if you're coming in from trafalgar square or the national gallery as its just round the corner. Ciao also offers you little alcoholic-anonymouses liqueur based ice creams, and for the more conventional ice cream fans, the usual banana splits and good old fruits.
best thing is you wont be able to miss it, not with this baby screaming ice cream outside!
(look for Ciao on Charing Cross Road)

| i think i've written about this before love, and sad to say, you've done it again! Well okay you haven't blown me off, but you've godamndunnit again with your fast fingers and quick editing, i can barely say Hare Krishna and half of my post and its original meanings going going gone!
you've featured my post here but its not quite the same as the one i've posted one post down from here, mainly cos i wrote that post due to the experience of having been there and not for the gluttonous reasons. i mean i admit, the food was posh and nice to look at, BUT i think your tripcrazed travellers would quite enjoy something different other than the usual fare of fusion cuisine and enjoy a lunch/dinner in an interactive restaurant!
if you wanted just food, there are hundreds of fusion cuisine places in London, but there's just ONE Inamo where you get to sit down and play around with your menu and table without getting chucked out of a fancy posh place.

| if you're ever in London looking for an interactive, different dining experience try Inamo down Wardour Street. Its great after you've been looking round China Town or Leceister Square and you'd like something out of the ordinary and fusion in cuisine.
tucked in a section of Soho, Inamo is a fusion cuisine restaurant combining Asian (Thai, Chinese, Vietnamese, Japanese, Korean) with Western fare. the restaurant consists of an eating section and a bar downstairs, the selection of drinks down in the bar ranges from your usual white and red wines and ventures into the Japanese plum wines, sake and innovative cocktail mixes fusing both your normal mixers and the not so normal Asian liqueurs.
what sets Inamo as an interactive experience is its design, the quirky interior and its tables. there isnt a menu on hand in this restaurant because everything is projected onto your table by an overhead projector. diners use a touch pad at the bottom of the table and make their selections, while their meals are then projected onto a space on the table so you have a visual representation of your order
while waiting for your food, the interactive table offers other interesting activities. a cam into the kitchen shows the preparations of the foods in real time
  while if you're into board games, the range of games is limited but you can still play a mean game of battleships with your dining date and sink the hell out of them, try to rearrange a scrambled picture or match the pictures behind covered squares
     if you're unfamiliar to the area, order yourself a taxi for after the meal or check out the bus routes and tube stations with the interactive transport map as for food i'll let the pictures do the talking  Hamachi Sashimi with Mirin and Truffle flakes and oil  Soft Shell Crab Maki  Hotstone Ribeye  Black Faced Lamb (Thai vegetable dressing, Grilled Lamb and Miso paste)
try to get there early for dinner or risk getting turned away or waiting for a table. if you're planning a late dinner on a weekend it would be best to book a table and arrive on time or you might need to wait for your table as places are limited. (dessert? if you're looking for something more worth your money its in the next entry  ) more information here! | | |
