The weather in London was fantastic. It was cold, cloudy and rainy, a perfect day to go to the Borough Market. The Borough Market is on Borough High Street across the London Bridge tube station. It is London's oldest food market and in terms of London shopping, it’s a foodie paradise.
The market is quite large with buzzing hive of noises, smells, and colors. It was difficult to resist all the stands and stalls which were selling anything from meat & vegetables to chocolates, breads, ice cream ,speciality cheeses, and what not.
The best part about the market were the stands selling chocolate brownies and pies and it’s no coincidence that there’s always a huge gathering of people outside it.
Throughout the market, something is always cooking, whether it’s stew and sizzling meats being grilled or something a little more interesting like ostrich burger.
Whether you like or don't like markets, you are really missing something if you leave London without walking around the cobblestoned paths of the Borough Market.

I tried the Raclette and the grilled cheese sandwich. Raclette is potatoes topped with melted raclette cheese, which they melt right in front of you and then scrape it over your plate.
