The local food markets around the globe, I do find somehow reflects the overall society and their current expectation in daily life. It can be a good indicator of how advanced the economy or local food scene is within a particular city. Borough Market is interesting as it has one of the most diversified offerings on offer, whereas my other beloved markets in Spain seem to be more concentrated on mainly raw produce such as the amazing array of seafood and vegetables and Jamon ham. I wished Hong Kong can also have similar quality wet markets too, but sometimes it will be hard to compare as the local HK Markets would be more Asian oriented in feel. But anyway here’s a summary of my latest London Borough Market finding. *Minus the Neal’s Yard Cheese room photos, as I seem to have dislocated them somewhere for now!.
- Chorizo and Red Pepper Rolls being prepared..
- Raw Seafood
- A Popular Stall for Meat stuffed into Bread or Wraps -
I could do with some of these too.
- Gourmet Baguettes - With Grilled Halloumi Cheese marinated in Lemon, Parsley & Garlic, with Sausage of Venison, Wild Boar, Red Wine & Apricot…
With a myriad of exotic sauces to be added on top for free. Trivial Question: When was the last time you have seen me eaten a hotdog in Hong Kong?
- Big dishes of Paellas and Stews -
Not a rare sight in Europe and even Australia nowadays. It is all about what the customers expect and the information gap separating us, but one prob wouldn’t find this in a HK market. But they at least they do serve something local?
- Raclette Cheese served with Potatoes and Pickles, and Cheese Toasties -
This stall is very famous in Borough and I have eaten these on a previous visit.
Simple but it is exactly what a crowd pleaser needed to be. If I had more stomach room I could fit in like 10 of these, if not 5 minimum.
