A most wonderful morning spent at Borough Market with a knowledgeable guide, tasting our way around the extraordinary variety of top-class food stalls from all over the country. This was the greatest treat. Our guide, Celia Brooks, was outstanding and the tour itself was beautifully thought out and arranged, from the glorious hot chocolate and pastries on arrival, accompanied by a short and fascinating history of the market, right through to the excellent tapas lunch complete with wine-tasting. Celia was at pains to point out that she took no commission and that any shopping we chose to do was purely our decision. But she was clearly a familiar and welcome face in the market, warmly greeted by traders throughout, and she'd taken a great deal of trouble to arrange special tastings for us at several stalls, carefully selected to provide maximum variety. At each one, the traders were happy to chat and answer questions. We enjoyed every minute, and will be booking as a gift for friends in the near future.
