There is a similarly nightmarish scenario at the Oval/Kennington Lane, which isn't helping commuting in South London. -

It may not be a design classic but it makes changing onto another bus route or getting to the station a whole lot easier than it used to be.

>>'Twas ever thus. My grandad was a lorry driver in the 30s and, pre traffic lights, he said it used to take 7 policeman to sort out the traffic at the Elephant, even with 1930s traffic The traffic lights were only installed in the 1990s. I remember dreading my driving instructor taking me to the Elephant and Castle roundabout before the lights were intalled - his argument was that if you could navigate the chaos there you could drive anywhere. -

You may already have ben but we always try to get along to Le Polidor at 41 Rue Monsieur le Prince. It's usually packed but if you get there when they open you can get a seat. Well cooked, basic French dishes at reasonable prices - fabulous 19th century interior. If you are beef eaters, La Ferrandaise round the corner at 8 rue Vaugirard serves the most fantastic beef and veal dishes. It's a bit pricier but well worth the investment.

The Mus?e Zadkine may fit the bill - it's on rue d'Assas and off the tourist trail. It's a fairly small space but full of a range of his fabulous sculptures.
