Every June, Britain's most influential figures in food and restaurants converge at the Taste of London festival in central London. Lining the grassy grounds of Regent's Park or the moody corridors of the Tobacco Dock, are stands from 40 London restaurants, including contemporary Chinese restaurant Chai Wu, the legendary Clove Club, Modern Pantry 2, Duck & Waffle, SushiSamba and Roka. It's a truly international food festival taking place in 21 cities across the globe, including Abu Dhabi, Toronto, Helsinki, Melbourne and Cape Town. Also on the docket are London's biggest name chefs, live entertainment, and pop-up cookery and cocktail classes.
