One of my Pokernews buddies is coming over to London (he is Canadian) for a few days and we are going out for a night on the town on Friday. The thing is (and this is a good thing, because Im a lightweight) he doesnt really drink, so my usual plan of 'lets get pissed' might not be best.

So Im trying to make the night a bit varied, I was thinking taking him round leciester square, camden, soho just for a few quiet drinks and maybe to the comedy store for their late show.

What else can we do? He is 29 like me and I presume he doesnt want to see any pole dancers, so what else is cool in London for tourists?

Dont actually want to do anything poker related, we talk shop every day and that would be a busmans holiday for us.

Tate Modern is open late on Friday, if you fancy art and that. You can then walk along the river afterwards.

On the other hand if you don't want an evening that sounds like a date with a French exchange student then the Comedy Store is a good shout.

Camden is a shithole.

Can't think of anything specific off the top of my head but check out the time out website, that'll tell you what's going on in Lomdon this Friday.

No, hence it's a good suggestion.

Comedy store imo - make sure you book tickets in advance as they often sell out well before.

Don't under any circumstances let those people who stand around leicester square leafletting persuade you to go to one of the comedy shows in the thistle hotel down the road. It's more funny at a funeral.

Hi Sushi in Camden is excellent for food.

Sushi is not food, it's pretentious overpriced pap that would benefit enormously from a coating of breadcrumbs, a quick dip in a deep fat fryer, and an 80% reduction in price

Barry mentioned Camden....anywhere there for food isn't going to be the cheapest but Hi is actually very reasonable.

Where have you had Sushi before Tom for you to have such a low opinion of it?

If by "Proper" you mean it smells, tastes, looks and costs about the same as a high class whore's moneybox, then yes, I've had proper sushi.

Sashimi doesn't have a strong odour, in fact most of it doesn't have any odour at all. 

I'd also question your high-class whore's moneybox Wink
