Where are the interesting places to visit in London this Thursday/Friday?
I am taking my fiancee down to London for her 28th birthday on Thursday/Friday. We arrive at 12:30, check in hotel for 1PM. We then have tickets to see 'Wicked' at 7:30PM Thursday and dinner reservations at 6:30 at Fifteen on Friday.
Anywhere cool/ interesting / hidden places to visit in between?
We like people-watching, vintage and food shops. We've visited the main attractions, visited Portobello market and attended a lunchtime recital in one of the churches if this helps get an idea of who we are.
Londoners - bless me with your knowledge and make this a great birthday outing!

I'm not a Londoner myself, but I've been there a few times - one place I could recommend is Covent Garden. Lots of shops, great people-watching, and even some music. A few months ago I happened to be there while a great local band was playing.
A good place to eat - especially if you're already in the Covent Garden area - is Porter's restaurant. Lots of good traditional English food, like Sheperd's Pie, Steak & Kidney Pudding, etc.

Best answer: Friday morning: Borough Market is a must.
