Wahaca’s trip to The Covent Garden Food Market

Thursdays in Covent Garden are market day and I was all over excited and hungry! It is great to have it on our doorstep once a week.

Carolyn (who does Wahaca’s product sourcing), Tommi (co founder and chef) and I all headed down for a spot of lunch and to chat to Niamh (@eatlikeagirl) at her stall to try out this weeks fare.

We tried some delicious Frank Hederman smoked salmon with Niamh’s own pickled cucumbers and chunky fresh bread. She’s spent the last few weeks pickling and canning her cucumbers as well as her home cooked filo pastries with butternut squash, spinach and chilli. We love a bit of chilli! All of this was topped off with a cheeky glass of Prosecco. hmmmmm…

We hope next time to try Frank’s smoked mussels in olive oil, which has come highly recommended… Niamh said she’d find out whether they’re available. Please let us know!

On to pudding…

I have a weakness for chocolate and other spoiling treats! We found this little stall selling mini shots of different puddings for just £1 – called the Dessert Deli. Chocolate shot with honeycomb on top was my favourite but I think the others were favouring the Crème Brulee.

Can’t wait for next week.
