Rump steak and oyster- pudding is a speciality of the “Cheshire Cheese.” the famous old tavern in a lane just ofi Fleet Street. Once upon a time the ancient house was frequented by a host of celebrities including Dr. Samuel Johnson, whose favourite seat is pointed out to this day.

It has been truly said that when a smoker takes, to “toasted" he has no time for any other tobacco. It is so fragrant and comforting. The six (and only genuine) toasted brands. Cut Plug Ho. 10 (Bullshead), Cavendish. Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Riverhead Gold, Desert Gold and Pocket Edition, have everything to recommend them.
