The secret history of street food
2022-11-05 10:30 - 12:30 | Meeting point: Rabot, 2-4 Bedale St, London, SE1 9AL
What exactly is street food? In this tour, guide Emma Parker, founder of Coutours, will dismiss the myth that street food was created at festivals by tracing its origins right back to Roman times. This walking tour will have a look at how Londoners ate over the years and why we relied on the city’s various street sellers and costermongers to provide us with such delights as hot sheep’s feet and codlings. We will taste delicious examples of street food including pies and oysters and many other delights on sale at our best food markets in London.
The tour will take in one of London’s street food markets e.g. Borough Market.

We continue the series of walks around London that we have started two year ago. The aim is to give FOCUS members the opportunity to travel to different, beautiful parts of London and walk through them while chatting with other FOCUS members and get to know the FOCUS team. This time we will go to Kenwood House. A wonderful place to visit in the summer Kenwood House is set on the edge of Hampstead Heath and is one of London’s hidden gems. From the meeting point a lovely 30/40 minutes’ walk across Hampstead Heat will take us to this house. Its breath-taking interiors and stunning art collection are free for everyone to enjoy if you wanted to stay longer and visit it on your own.
