Street Food Eats - Views, What, Where ?

[Herbie]

Street food in the UK has become a bit trendy in the last 10 years. There are street vendors selling high-end gastronomic food in some cities and towns.

Very good point. There are lots of markets in London now to serve lunch. I used to go on a Friday as £5 - £7.50 is a lot for lunch even if the food is lovely. I At one time I worked near Borough Market which was amazing for lunch and ingredients, but also worked near bunhill fields (outside the city) which had an every day 'lunch market'

Borough market is fantastic - I haven't been for ages...

I used to work in Worship Street in the early 1970s and we used to walk through Bunhill Fields to get to the market. Not many places to buy street food then, but there was an excellent bakers.....
