A collective of street food stalls, they function under the dictum of 'making cities taste better,' and they're doing a mighty fine job of it. Beginning as something called Eat.St in Kings Cross, they were at the forefront of the current street food revolution in London. They work as a collective of vendors, who take turns to trade at their now various London-wide markets.
Kings Cross KERB is still the hub of the action, with dozens of daily changing stalls, while they also have spaces in Bloomsbury, Maida Hill and outside the Gherkin on Bishopsgate in the East. The reason they hold such dominance over the scene, is you have to be top notch to qualify for membership, raising the gastronomic bar high for vendors. This makes for some excellent dining options from sticky barbecue ribs to masala fish wraps.
