London’s top foodie dates
It’s no secret London’s gourmet awakening has turned into something of an obsession. You’d be hard-pressed these days to wander around the capital’s neighbourhoods without stumbling upon sweet-smelling street stalls, treat-packed delis and other pop-up supper clubs. Londoners no longer restrict themselves to a best-loved pub: they now keep track of their favourite weekend markets, brunch spots and seasonal events, too. Fancy feasting like a local? Here’s our pick of the star dates on autumn’s culinary calendar.
London’s best food events this autumn
SCOOP
Culinary experimenters Bompas & Parr are at it again, this time with a kooky immersive exhibition at King’s Cross. Celebrate the past, present and future of ice cream, then try madcap flavours (glow-in-the-dark, anyone?) at the Conehenge café
London Restaurant Festival
Eat your way through London’s diverse dining scene. Go on tasting tours, be fed by superstar chefs and try 350 special menus (from budget to blow-out) at the capital’s best eateries. A fine-dining weekend for true gourmands.
London Cocktail Week 2018
London Cocktail Week is the world’s biggest cocktail festival. Prop up 300 of the city’s coolest bars, and sip £6 bespoke cocktails shaken up by London’s best mixologists. Digital passes to the festival make picking your poison easier.
VOICES AT THE TABLE
Writers, chefs and artists come together around a table to muse on their culinary inspirations. The autumnal incarnation of this gourmet salon – by the peckish brains behind Toast Festival – will be a laid-back lunch affair hosted at supper-club-turned-restaurant Darjeeling Express.
