KSR FOOD & WI E



KSR Food & Wi e
112 Kensington Church Street
London, W8 4BH

TWIRL AVAILABILITY: Not available
TWIRL STORAGE: N/A
TWIRL PRICE: N/A
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: The fact they hadn't replaced the missing 'N' from the sign on the front of this shop should have warned me that they wouldn't be organised enough to order a few Twirls. You guys need to sort yourselves out.

CRISPINS FOOD & WINE

Crispins
49-51 Notting Hill Gate, Notting Hill
London, W11 3JS

TWIRL AVAILABILITY: Excellent
TWIRL STORAGE: On shelf
TWIRL PRICE: 67p
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: I somehow managed to delete the photo I took of Crispins, so I'll have to go back soon and take another one. When I was in the shop, a bald headed man complained to his friend about how much they charge for a Curly Wurly. I considered suggesting to him that he could start a project mapping the prices across London but decided against it.

EMBASSY NEWS FOOD & WINE



Embassy News Food & Wine
16 Notting Hill Gate, Notting Hill
London, W11 3JE

TWIRL AVAILABILITY:
Excellent
TWIRL STORAGE: On shelf
TWIRL PRICE: "59p"
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: When I went in, I only had 55p in change (I also had two twenty pound notes as I'd just been to the cash machine. I tend usually to take out only thirty pounds, but the cash machine didn't have any ten pound notes, so I had the choice of either twenty or forty pounds). When I asked the guy how much a Twirl was, he said "59p" but when I feigned counting my change and pretended to discover I only had 55p, he asked how much I had and when I told him, he accepted that. It had never occured to me before to haggle for Twirls. This changes everything.
