Borough market was a very happy place for me. I am a foodie. My metabolism is my favorite part about myself. I can just eat and eat without failure. It’s awesome. So Borough Market was right up my alley. Never have I seen so much diversity at a food market before. I would estimate that there were 500 people at the market. Not going to lie, it was very over stimulating. There were just so many options to choose from. I’m generally a very indecisive person when it comes to food, so figuring out what I wanted to eat was extremely difficult for me. Because it was my first time, I wanted to check out every place and weigh out my options before I landed on a final decision. This wasn’t easy. There was a place called the Black Pug that had a sandwich that looked to die for. I really wanted to eat there because apparently it’s popular on TikTok and that’s typically a good indication that it was going to be great. The sandwich was literally called, “The Best One”. At least I think that’s what it was called. I kinda had trouble retaining information because I was so hungry and overstimulated.
That’s what it looks like. Yea. Heavenly. But unfortunately the line to eat there would’ve been a 2o minute wait and I just didn’t have it in me to wait that long. So I scourted the area for a Plan B. I knew that I wanted something that I couldn’t get anywhere else. I very tempted to get Shawarma but I’ve already had that like 4 times in the past week so I had to stay from it. I eventually landed on this Iraqi Kebab place. It seemed adventurous enough so I was like screw it, I gotta make a decision. I ordered a lamb and chicken tikka kebab wrap thing and it was a lot of food. The lamb was easily the best part about it. It came with tomatoes, lettuce, onion, and flatbread.
It was pretty amazing honestly. it looked like more than I can chew, but if you know me, I love a challenge. Especially when food is involved. I’d give that meal a 7.5/10. Nothing insane, but it did the trick. I also ended up eating the rest of 3 other people’s food which included Mac n cheese, an Indian dish, and some ice cream.
Overall, I will be going back and trying that Sandwich. It’s calling my name.
