Epicurious – the best of food sites? Probably!

Your monthly cheese board

Signora Bildt’s Italian larder

London, Noura Brasserie (Lebanese)
Not much of a website, but the restaurant’s unbeatable value for money.

Books for Cooks
(Bookshop and (small) restaurant combined.)

Public Record Office

Tate (Gallery, Modern, St Ives etc.)

Dis'n'dat...

Samuel Pepys homepage
(including the full text of the diary 1660-1669)

A glorious ragbag of history and nostalgia
(very good section on Swedish inventions for example)

Russian sunbirds
(Huge collection of Russian folktales, litterature, history, artists with audio readings,
basically it's an on-line art gallery and auction house)

Tea and biscuits
(Just that! Highly entertaining and informative although frustratingly slow - but then
again "a watched kettle never boils"...)
