There's a couple of good meaty restaurants near Smithfields, unsurprisingly. However I need to tap the brain of someone who knows more about them than me.

For greasy spoons, Rosa's near the old Truman Brewery is pretty good, although, of course, everyone has their favourite local one (that just happened to be mine for a year or so).

Tis my [DrHyde's] favourite too. The food is top-notch, with damned good tea to wash it down with. They do have some non-greasy items on the menu, but they are to be avoided. Anyway, if you want something different, there's several stalls in the nearby [[Spitalfields Market]].

That area in general is good for greasy spoons - there are several excellent ones round the top end of Shoreditch High Street, including Titanic [http://www.streetmap.co.uk/streetmap.dll?G2M?X=533470&Y=182903&A=Y&Z=1 here] and Taste of China (takeaway only, [http://www.streetmap.co.uk/streetmap.dll?G2M?X=533586&Y=182852&A=Y&Z=1 here]).

If you're in Lewisham you must visit the Chef's Treat on Lewisham High Street. It doesn't have all the charms of a traditional greasy spoon insomuch as it isn't small and poky, it doesn't have rickety furniture on shared tables where you have to sit next to a 20 stone builder on his fifth lunch break that morning. But, it does have an excellent menu, including all the classics; breakfasts, burgers, roasts, various meals + chips, tea, good coffee and a dessert menu. The staff are very friendly, but will leave you alone if that is what you require, and the clientele is mixed - workmen, students, child and old person friendly. Decor is basic, clean and comfortable. Queues at peak times because it is very popular. Reasonable prices.

A good caff in Chelsea is the Chelsea Kitchen, SW3 4TZ.
