By now you all know about how the inner foodie in me is no secret and that I like to base my days on what yummy meals I can eat. One of the last weekends in April was the "World Street Food Festival" on Southbank and it turned out to be a really fun outing. Passing Parliament is one of my favorite walks in the city, especially past Big Ben at sunset, it's some sort of magic, I tell you. Emily and I decided to venture for dinner two nights in a row, except for Easter Sunday of course, and we snacked and chatted watching the sun set over the London Eye. There were tons of food vendors, even some pop up cocktail bars, but each booth had something unique about it, some were even vintage buses! Next to the cute displays was the amazing food which covered food from just about every part of the world.
I decided on the fishdog the first night with yummy garlic fries. And yes, a fish dog is just what you're imagining. Basically fish and chips with mushy peas in the form of a hotdog on a bun. SO good. The next day Emily and I opted for the sausage stand because it smelled so good and the line was humungous which is always a good sign. We topped it off with churros and chocolate, also another fantastic choice.
I have to admit, exploring London by foot and by food has been one of the best ways to see the city. You really get a flavor for each borough you're in as well as get to see the city in a different way.
