London foodies are spoilt for choice
Without a doubt London foodies are spoilt for choice. Not only do we have a wonderful selection of restaurants on our doorstep, we now have an increasing amount of pop-ups offering lots of different and unusual dining experiences. For March’s London food events we’ve selected a handful of London’s pop-up restaurants to reflect the new trend, with two highlights being Rachel McCormack’s Catalan pop-up in Liverpool Street and The Royal Horticultural Society Spring Fair in Victoria. In addition to London’s pop-ups, there’s another special date in March; Mothers Day on the 10th so don’t forget the flowers and chocolates. And finally if it’s chocolate you’re after then stock up for Easter (29/03/13) at the chocolate festival on the Southbank from the 22nd.
Our selected London food events for March are:
