My former teacher Mrs. Green, told me that she always takes students here when she takes her school trips to London. She told me I definitely need to go here once I get to London. Right here in London is where the popular worldwide restaurant chain began. Back in the seventies,Eric Clapton - the original guitar god, founder of Cream and Derek & the Dominoes, creator of the immortal "Layla" - liked to eat at this quirky American diner in London called the Hard Rock Cafe. The place was this funky old building that used to be a Rolls Royce dealership, and it was run by a couple of young Americans who liked to keep it loose. Founded by Isaac Tigrett and Peter Morton, two enterprising and music-loving Americans, Hard Rock Cafe was an instant classic. You could be yourself at the Hard Rock. It was good food and a good time. So Clapton got to be friends with the proprietors and asked them to save him a regular table, put up a brass plaque or something. And the young proprietors said, “Why don't we put up your guitar?” They all had a chuckle, and he handed over a guitar, and they slapped it on the wall. They have a delicious looking menu for food and drinks. The decor is worthy of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The Hard Rock Cafe has an official Gift Shop directly across the street from it.
