Arguably the most important factor of the trip: where to go to lunch. If anyone knows me at all, they know my next thought is where to get lunch, so experiencing so many different markets was a real treat with me. It was a difficult choice choosing which market to write about, but I think it is only right to write about the dumplings from Spitalfields Market. Non-arguably one of my favorite meals I have had on this trip, Spitalfields Market had so many ethnic food options, which are my favorite meals. Over the course of this trip, I was happily surprised to see that London has meals from every country; no matter where you are, you can always find Indian food, Italian food, Thai food, etc., and the markets were no different. After a few laps around the market trying to decide what to get, Erin and I decided to split a mac and cheese after craving it all day, and some cooked soup dumplings, and of course a Limonata Sanpelagrino to wash it down; probably my 20th one of the trip! I was majorly pumped to eat dumplings. After keeping Trader Joe’s in business because of how many soup dumplings I consume, I was stoked to try some from the Market. First of all, they were ready by the time I put my card back in my wallet after ordering. Second, they were the best dumplings ever. I truly believe that anything you got at the markets would have been amazing. What I really enjoyed about this market were the shops that were around. There were little vendors that you could support locally; then there were bigger named stores like LuluLemon and Anthropologie there also. It was fun to go in those stores, remember you have no money, then go to the little vendors to buy your things. We also had the difficult task of finding Erin a concert outfit to wear to Harry Styles, which was the perfect assignment for this market. One of my favorites for the street performers, shops, and food, Spitalfields, you haven’t seen the last of me!
