Do away with the misconception of British food as bland. Welcome to the **global foodie capital** - as voted by the world's most decorated Michelin star chef (a Frenchman at that! ). Embark on a wonderful, fascinating adventure discovering the beauty of the East End's Roman burial grounds and Georgian-style mansions. You'll be sure to indulge in a number of delicious treats. Comb the neighbourhood’s wealth of street markets, cheese shops, bakeries, restaurants and pubs.

Accompany your local guide as you navigate the best of these, sampling a variety of dishes and foods: from Jewish beigels and Indian curries to classic fish & chips. Finish your tour unwinding in a stunning, centuries-old beer house. Digest what you have seen (and eaten), and talk to your friendly guide about London and local culture. Perhaps discuss possible recommendations and tips for the remainder of your trip.

London's East End is a fascinating melting pot of diverse culture and fascinating history: heavily bruised during the blitz and once the home of Jack The Ripper, London's East End is viewed by many as the creative capital of Europe. Street art coats the buildings, trendy types fill the bars and boutiques line the streets. **Fill your stomach and see London from a different perspective!**
