Street Feast, London - Experience

No matter if you are a crazy food addict or just enjoy spending time with your friends and socialize, the London Street Feast is the place you should be. Just over the last weekend, the Street Feast, London has started. Being a bunch of foodies, my friends and I rush over to Dalston Yard to see what this is all about. A little bit about the Street Feast, it is all about food and drinks (if you didn’t get it from their title). This is a place where it gives a great platform for street vendors to show what they can offer. From burgers, and ribs to gin and whole pineapple drinks, each vendor brings something unique to the event. 

The whole atmosphere of the place is very young and energetic. It doesn’t have any fancy table or large chandeliers, but a more rustic, down-to-earth feel with music, bonfire, and great food. You might think food from places, like this must be gross looking, but that is completely the opposite. All of the dishes, and drinks offered, I would say could compete with any trendy restaurant out there. Although I did not get to try every stall at the street feast, but from what I have seen and ate, each dish looks as delicious as it tasted. If you are a food business and wish to show off what you can create, definitely apply for a place there. It's not only a great place for attendees to enjoy the food, but for the traders, to expand their brand and grow their dream. My friends and I had such an amazing time at the feast, not only enjoying great food, but also the whole feel of the place. It is a very sociable place, from interacting with your own friends to other attendees, even the stall owners too. One of my favorite stalls there was the Smokestak. From the large metal smoke case where the meats are kept to the delicious taste, are all what the Street Feast is about. Creating a memorable brand with their own creative design as well as creating food dishes that has an amazing taste. I had the pull pork and my friends had the pork ribs, and briskets. We also got some Tacos and Indian Food that were equally great and full of flavor.  

The street feast is only open on Friday and Saturday night from 5pm till midnight. Therefore, if you and your friends are in need of something new to do, pop over to the street feast and check it out. There is a small entrance fee of 3 Pounds, which isn’t very expensive as with each dishes’ price. Right now, there are two areas, where this event is held, Dalston Yard (the one I went) and Lewisham’s Model Market. Two others I would assume to open soon in the summer are Shoreditch Yard and Hawker House. I would definitely go back again, and try all the other yummy food. Just remember if you do decide to go, plan to leave a bit early as it might have a pretty long line before you can get in.
