Taste of London 2014

Taste of London is one of my favourite foodie events in the calendar each year.  I look forward to seeing what the crème de la crème of English cuisine has to offer and the new up and coming flavours that will soon make way on to our supermarket shelves over the coming year.

In my previous jobs this festival was a source of inspiration for retailer briefs I was working on, but in recent years has become more of a fact finding mission for myself, to find new ingredients, recipe ideas and hob knob with the chefs!

2014 did not disappoint, being one of my best years yet.  I was exceptionally lucky to meet a few amazing and inspirational chefs, and also spend some time discussing recipes and the dishes that represent their restaurants, which I now cannot wait to cook - watch this space!
