Food Lovers Fair

Click for larger imageOn Saturday we decided to go to the London Transport Museum.

We took the tube from Gloucester Road to Covent Garden (exit only at Covent Garden from 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm on Saturdays because there are SO many people around there!) and spent a couple of hours at the museum. It wasn’t that interesting. We often find that when museums are geared to be learning events for children, they aren’t all that appealing to us. Anyway, we did get a couple of excellent posters we will keep as mementos of life in London.

To our good fortune, we discovered that the Transport Museum is adjacent to the Covent Garden Market that just happened to be holding a Food Lovers Fair on Saturday. This fair is recognised as a "showcase for the very best of sustainable, traceable, British produce." We tasted some delicious samples, and watched some good street performers before purchasing some weird-looking but delicious-tasting Scotch Eggs.

Hi Linda and Heather - have just discovered your blog through your listing on the London Bloggers site. So refreshing to hear a non-English perspective of our fine, strange, maddening yet exciting capital city! Look forward to reading more!

By the way, you don't have an About page so readers who do not know you don't know who you are (why you came to the UK, for example). Perhaps you could consider one?

All the best to you both!
Fellow Londoner, Planethalder.
