Another foody post about my trip to Borough market. Mmm, don't think I will ever be fed up of food... My obsession with drawing fish is still going strong too, I have about 5 paintings/studies of fish so far and intend on doing many more, oh yes.
This stall below was quite interesting to me in particular. They were recreating the real way of doing a raclette, where you melt a huge piece of cheese then scrape the top layer off once it's melted. Our family does this a lot & I believe it is a French thing, deeeelicious.
This mushroom stall was pretty awesome too, not many people I know are huge fans of them, but how can you not be when they look so good? All shapes, shades, forms, sizes - it was incredible, makes me want to go mushroom picking in a forest, although I don't think that would be a very safe idea haha.
After our morning at the market, my mother & I walked to Brick Lane for a late lunch. It was my first time there, and the feel of the place is so cool, it felt a bit like Reading festival style-wise, if you know what I mean? I loved it.
The street art, the restaurants, the buzz, AND MY BURGER (veggie burger of course) WAS AMAZING. It was huge, the guy kept asking me whether I wanted different salads and sauces & I just kept saying yes to everything, hence why I ended up with my humungous burger of deliciousness.
I had to resort to eating the burger with a fork in the end, it was that big.
Music-wise, I'm actually listening to The Paradise album right now (music to one of the best TV series) but I'm also listening toooo: Tom Odell's album, his voice is just so mmmm.
You've got me soo excited to do Borough Market and Brick Lane again when I visit London later this year. Your burger looks amazing haha.
ReplyDeleteMy mouth was almost watering by the time I scrolled all the way down! I have to agree with that bit about mushrooms, they're so overlooked. They're amazing if you melt some cheese on them + other toppings to make a 'mushroom pizza' - plus, it's beneficial to your health too :) x

You have no idea how much your post makes me miss the Borough Market. I went here almost every weekend that I was living in London. I would go there for brunch/lunch and pick up some Monmouth Coffee on my way out haha. Great shots!
ReplyDeleteOh man, all that food looks amazing! This place's definitely going on my to-do list if I ever make it to London, haha.
ReplyDeleteI went up to Borough Market for my birthday last year, there was so much food about I couldn't stop my mouth watering! It's so lovely to wander around and see all the different things everyone has to offer; I need to go back soon!
