London: Borough Market


 Photos featured all made by me
As I pointed out last week I'll be doing a couple of blogs on things to see and do in London (besides the obvious visiting of the Big Ben, Tower Bridge and so on). Now when you think about London, or the UK in general, fine and nice food might not be the first thing that comes to mind. At least, that is the case for me. However, I managed to find a little piece of food heaven in London: Borough Market.

Borough Market is more than a place to buy and sell food. It’s a unique corner of London that captures our rich culinary history. A source of quality British and international produce, we have a reputation as the country’s most renowned food market. It’s a place where people to come to discover the tastes, aromas, textures and colours that only fresh, seasonal food can offer.

Like I said for me Borough Market was a little piece of heaven on earth. It's a great market that sells everything from finished products such as ice cream and pastries as well as basis products such as olives, oysters and all types of mushrooms. For everyone who just loves browsing through food markets and visits London, this is a must go.

Do keep in mind that Borough Market is not open daily unfortunately and sometimes only during the afternoon. The time table, an interactive map and much more news and information on which sellers to find at the market can be found here.
