A chance to once again take advantage of the long days and visit two of London's greatest food markets accompanied by Jeff the Chef.
You can come along to either or both locations. We'll begin early at Billingsgate where you'll see some of the freshest produce around and then move on to Borough Market with a chance to meet some of the market's best known traders and sample their goods, learn what to look for when buying and enjoy views over the Thames.
You dont need to come to both. I know Billingsgate is early (it closes just after 8am!!) but you are more than welcome to meet us at Borough later if you choose.
The tour is FREE but for optional tastings you may need to chip in with a couple of pounds to cover the suppliers costs!! The day finishes around 11.30am. Group size is limited so please register early.
