If you are looking for something to do this weekend the 2016 Chinese Food Festival is taking place on the 19th, 20th and 21st in Potters Fields Park adjacent to the magnificent Tower Bridge. Entry is free and following the huge success of last year (the festival welcomed over 30,000 visitors) the opening hours have been extended and exhibitors increased. I love Asian food so I will definitely be making an appearance.
2016 Highlights include:
– Chinese Food Fair (over 30 stalls selling huge variety of Chinese food and drink)
– 2016 UK Chinese Streetfood Competition (previous winner was Chong Qing noodles 重庆小面)
