I love Borough Market. If you like, it reminds me of ‘Pasar Malam’ – the only difference is it takes place during the day and minus the Ah Beng.
At Borough Market, there are people with real blond hair..not the fake wannabe blondie Si Ham Chai (Cockle Boy)
Borough Market is London’s oldest food market and located at the south bank of the Thames with the nearest tube station at London Bridge. Despite being a wholesale market, tourist like you and me are always welcomed. The market is opened between Thursday and Saturday.
Here’s some of my favourite stalls
Monmouth Coffee Company
If I dare say – it is one of the best coffee joints in town. There is always a long queue but the wait is worth it.
My favorite choice... ice capacino
You can either enjoy a coffee to go or simply bring home some fresh coffee beans. However coffee beans sold at the stall is limited If you want more selection, just visit the shop located just around the corner of Borough Market.
Raclette Cheese
Another personal favorite of mine is the Raclette Cheese stall. At the price of £5.00, you can get the taste of melted cheese with pickles and potatoes. Like Monmouth Coffee, there is always a long queue at the raclette cheese stalls.
The cheese is subject to intense heat...
Then the melted cheese are 'scrapped' into a plate of potatoes and pickles.
There are other food to go as well –
Enjoy smoked salmon with champagne
Or maybe some fresh oysters?
Wild boar sausages
There are other goodies as well you can indulge in.
