Borough Markets


Today, we had a bit of a slow start - Lisa got hooked on watching back to back Season 3 of Grey's Anatomy last night and it was a very late one indeed! Once we got going we headed to London Bridge to the best food markets in London - The Borough Markets. We had a stroll around tasting cheese, jams, bread, sausage, pesto, cakes and brownies. It was amazing all the different types of ingredients available! I was very jealous - lots of things that are hard to get in Aus. We then made a stop at one of Lisa's favourite places - Neal's Yard Dairy (a Jamie Oliver favourite). They were the cheese experts! Every type of cheese imaginable. And they did a good job at selling their product... they sucked me in!


After a stroll around the markets tasting cheese, jams, breads, sausages, cakes and brownies we stopped off for the famous chicken burger with mayo mustard and relish.
Lisa stocked up on fudge as a snack for our train trip to Paris tonight. We then headed home to pack

It was another bright and sunny day in London... who said the weather is miserable here all the time! We caught the tube back to Canada Water and took a walk in the sunshine to Tesco before heading home to pack.
