Europe 2012 – Harrod’s London

Went to the world famous Harrod’s department store in London, where Theresa instantly bonded with the Harrod’s mascot bear. This place is massive, with rooms upon rooms of luxury merchandise covering multiple floors and spanning the entire interior of the building. They even have a small area dedicated to Princess Diana. Besides durable goods, Harrod is also known for its vast  Food Halls, which were several rooms filled with both prepared and raw foods. They have separate halls for meats of all types, seafood, baked goods/desserts, coffees and teas, chocolate, and vegetables.   Each hall also has a restaurant area where you could sit and eat the hall’s specialty. For example, the seafood hall had a caviar counter and a small cafe that served sashimi. Great place to browse and look, but it can get pricey to actually buy and/or eat food there. You will most likely leave Harrod’s either hungry or with a lighter wallet.
