Oh mighty sage that is nsc. Where is a good area to find reasonable priced food suitable for me and the kids within a reasonable distance of the British Museum ( Bloomsbury) . The more exotic the better.

Outside the School of Oriental and African Studies which is a walk from the British Museum every lunchtime the Hare Krishna come with free vegetarian curry and naan for the students. Pretty exotic :D

I suppose anything not deep fried is exotic in Croydon.

Thank God I don't live in Croydon then! Little bit hypocritical someone from Brighton talking about fried foods given that you're the home of fried fish & chips no?
You wanted exotic, its exotic. You wanted cheap. its free. You wanted it close to British Museum its a 2 minutes walk away. Stop complaining :)

Alternatively, go to Euston and there's a pub called the Brie Louise. It's a CAMRA pub, stocked full of great Ales & Ciders and it does the best pies I've ever tasted. It's not exotic but at least I'm trying to help.

Since when was Brighton the home of fish & chips?

You've obviously never tasted the vegetable curry given out by the Hare Krishnas outside of SOAS then have you? ;)

Last one http://hareandtortoise.co.uk/bloomsbury# It's a pan Asian in the Brunswick Centre, which again is only roughly 5 or 10 minutes from the British Museum on foot. It might not be what you consider exotic but whilst I was at the IOE it was a god send. Take or leave my suggestions but no need to be a right tosser when someone's trying to help despite their football affiliations.

The Rainforest Cafe is pretty exotic and is reasonably close by, in Shaftesbury Avenue. The kids would love it!

I know the area - worked there for 20 years and still visit very often...

My advice...........Gigg's fish and chips........large portions and good value: Just at the
back of Goodge street......can't be beaten.
