LONDON'S BOROUGH MARKET
If you are a real food lover then next time you visit London, be sure not to miss the capitals' Borough Market for a food experience that is second to none.
Borough Market is London’s most
renowned food market; a source of exceptional British and international produce. It is a haven for anybody who cares about the
quality and provenance of the food they eat - chefs, restaurateurs, passionate
amateur cooks and people who just happen to love eating and drinking. But it’s not just the sheer quality of the
food on offer that makes Borough Market special – it is also about the people
and the place. The market is populated by a community of
remarkable individuals from all over the UK, Europe and the rest of the world,
all of whom care deeply about the food and drink on offer. Many of our
stallholders are themselves producers – people who grow, rear or bake the food
that they sell. Others are importers with intimate knowledge of whichever
corner of the globe they source their products from. As a result, the
market has become a vast repository of culinary knowledge and understanding.
It’s a place to explore, to ask questions, to discover new flavours and to
savour a unique atmosphere.
