Imagine being in your local food joint and John Boyega and Harrison Ford walking in for a bite.

Boyega, 23, who is from Peckham, south East London bonded with his legendary Star Wars co-star Harrison Ford by taking him to his favourite eatery. One day after they'd finished filming at Pinewood Studios near London, they headed to the Old Kent Road. Screen Shot 2015-12-17 at 16.44.48 Boyega revealed: "Harrison is a really great guy and someone who has a very big legacy. In order to break Harrison into the London culture I took him to the Old Kent Road to have some Nigerian food and he loved it. That's something I definitely remember, I love that man." 'Ford ate a traditional Nigerian egusi soup and pounded yam, and quenched his thirst with a non-alcoholic cocktail', reports The Evening Standard. In case you want to try your chances of eating with the same fork as Harrison, the restaurant is the 805. 805
