RESTAURANTS: The ubiquitous "Pret a Manger" sandwich, pastry and coffee shops are the mainstay of budget Londoners. The bread is always fresh, and the combinations of food are creative, including salmon and chive sandwiches and small, boxed desserts. The best pastries in town are at DeBaer's, a Belgian patisserie on tiny William Street just off the busy Knightsbridge shopping street, where the almond croissants are tastier than in Brussels or Paris. No one should visit London without taking part at least once in the afternoon tea ritual, practiced by tourists and natives alike. Harrod's is great...

A sort of mini-conglomerate, Seaboard has interests in hogs, strawberries, chickens, shrimp, salmon, flour and wine. Its operations span four continents and nearly two dozen countries and range from cargo ocean liners to sugarcane. And like other profitable businesses, it collects subsidies--or, more accurately, corporate welfare--from local, state and federal governments. Indeed, officials trip over one another in the rush to extend taxpayer support to Seaboard--from the Federal Government's Overseas Private Investment...
