The food in the UK is more variable than in the US. Somehow bad restaurants stay in business longer in the UK. That said if you eat out based on personal recommendations I would say that the UK restaurants are slightly better than the US, if somewhat more expensive.
London is a bad city in which to "take a chance" with a restaurant, as many restaurants cater to tourists, not to repeat business.
And it always amazes me that people say that HiFi is more expensive in the UK than in the US. This is only true if you buy american or japanese made equipment. Why you would be buying US or asian stuff while living in Europe, though, is quite beyond me as European hifi is excellent.
