Overview
The Exotic East End Experience is elevated by this heady mix of extra cultural delights on market day Sunday!
This is not simply a ‘food tour’ but a journey around the world and understanding and celebration of how the most multicultural area of the most cosmopolitan city came to be. You’ll taste Indian samosas, local oysters with a glass of bubbly, Ghanian chocolate and “Jewish Beigels or Bagels” (depends on which side of the world you are).
No visit to the East End would be complete without some Cockney banter, so you’ll learn bit o’ rhyming slang when it’s time to rest your ‘plates of meat’.
This is the ultimate cultural journey in London’s backyard and carefully curated for every taste!
