Portobello Markets, Notting Hill, London


After toying with the idea last night of visiting Suffolk, we decided that there's just too much to do in Suffolk for a day trip and that it should be left for a more deserving two days over a full weekend. Hence, we decided to go to Portobello Markets at Notting Hill.

Portobello Markets is a popular destination for both tourists and locals alike. When we went earlier in the year on a Sunday, the main street was still quite busy, despite it raining. Today, on a Saturday, the streets were crazy! People literally covered the street and throw in all the street stalls that open on Saturdays, there wasn't much room to move.

However, the popularity of Portobello Markets is not without reason. There's a lot of interesting things being sold, both in shops and on the streets, and a variety of yummy food on offer. Irene and I were lucky to have settled on a stall selling German sausages in a roll. It was quite cheap at 3 quid a roll, and it tasted delicious! We liked it so much (both the taste and the value) that we bought another one on the way back to share.


Apart from the German sausages in a roll, we also shared a frozen yoghurt topped with choc brownies. That too was delicious!


One thing I really like about London is all the interesting food that you can find at every new place you visit!
