Borough Market

Borough Markets.... such a lovely part of London... there is such an unbelievable amount of food there... and it is amazing!!!!

Michelle (Sydney gal who I met at my church in Kirrabilli) and I decided to head to the markets last saturday before we went to a music festival called Fruit Stock. After I got very mixed up between Bond Street and Baker Street (we were meeting at Bond st station, but i waited at baker st station for about 15 mins... mobiles don't work on the underdground) we headed to London Bridge tube station and spent about an hour and a half wandering around and choosing what we should take for our picnic.





Here I am with the required Sainsbury's cool bag, ready to shop.








Michelle and I headed for Regent's park to go to Fruit Stock which is an annual music festival put on by a fresh juice company... unfortunately the juice wasn't free. BUT it was such a lovely sunny day. We just lay in the sun (with 50+ suncream on like good Australians) enjoying the weather and the music (and naturally the food).



Speaking of food, we were so taken by Borough markets we went again this saturday for lunch. I had a Chorizio roll... Schelle had a Venison burger. The delights of burough markets also includes a shop called Konditor and Cook, which is ledgendary in my mind because of my sister Mel.





K&C is close to where she used to work, so she introduced me to the boston brownie last year. It has cranberries in it and no walnuts (afterall they ruin anything they are in, well in my opinion). But today I refrained from the BB, instead I had a cup of hot chocolate, which was effectively melted chocolate infused with vanilla beans and a dash of milk.
