On Yongjia Lu, next to the shop selling fake gold for dead people, an uncle in his bike repair shop picks up a KTV microphone and, eyes-closed, croons some backup vocals over old Chinese songs blasting from the stereo. Two doors down, a math-teacher from East London who recently played Hamlet in a Shanghai production is serving homemade sausages, full English breakfasts, and -- most notably -- sausage rolls. It is rainy, and dreary, and 12:30pm, and the men seated next to the tables at Bad Boy Bangers are crushing Reeb Beers and chain smoking.

This setting is exactly how you want to experience British food.
