Yesterday evening S and I headed of for a Taste of London at Regent's park. This annual exhibition of food houses stalls from some of the top London restaurants, cooking classes by master chefs, local produce, live music and good wine and champagne. Some of the restaurants on show were Cinnamon Club, Tamarind, Benares, Kai Mayfair, Toms Kitchen, Le Gavroche, L'Atelier du Joel Robuchon, China Tang and Café Anglais. I had a fabulous time, tasted some great and not so great food. Loved the wasabi prawns- Kai Mayfair, chicken tikka - Benares, lamb chops and grilled shrimp- Toms kitchen, bengali mince meat cutlets with beetroot- Cinnamon club, Shrimp with curry leaves and soft naan bread- Cinnamon club, Soft chocolate cake with mascarpone - Le Gavroche. The food at the Tamarind stall was a let down. Bought a few goodies, books and some fresh cheese- Black peppercorn, garlic and chives and Sweet chilli from the Isle of Man stall. The icing on the cake was meeting Atul Kochhar at the Benares stall, it just about rounded up a near perfect day.
