The Taste Festivals are a series of food and drink festivals held around Britain where visitors have the opportunity to sample signature dishes from famous chefs, watch cooking demonstrations, buy fresh local produce, sample beer and enjoy fine local wines all in unique outdoor settings.
Taste of London, the capital’s best and biggest food, wine and dining-out extravaganza and the flagship event of the Taste Festivals is back for a fifth triumphant year, and this year it’s better than ever. For the first time in its history, Taste of London will be celebrating international cuisine as Taste of China comes to the festival.
Fans of Chinese cuisine will be able to indulge in a culinary journey through the different regions and culinary delights of China. From the fiery heat of chillies in Sichuanese food to the subtlety and delicacy of Cantonese food, you’ll be able to sample it all. Taste of China will also include a demonstration area sponsored by Amoy, with cooking presentations from chefs at Beijing’s South Beauty restaurant, and London’s Kai, Snazz Sichuan and China Tang’s restaurants. Harbin will provide authentic Chinese beer to wash it all down with, whilst Chinese dragon dances, live ice-carving, acrobatic Shaolin monks and Tai Chi demonstrations will provide entertainment.
