Bermondsey square stock market
Following the success of their test run last December, The Stock MKT was back in Bermondsey Square, SE1 on Friday 27th April, and I was there to take the official photos of the event! Located just 10 minutes walk from Borough station, Bermondsey Square already hosts a famous antiques fair every Friday. The area was regenerated in to include apartments, restaurants and a boutique hotel and it is in this setting that the Stock MKT takes place.
The weather gods looked after us on the night and gave us a break of sunshine after a month of endless rain! I arrived before sunset, the food stalls still warming up their ovens and grills, people beginning to gather in the square. I spent a few hours taking photos and chatting to the sellers and to the many Twitter friends I bumped into. By the time I decided to get some food, around 8: Even worst, the Pizza Pilgrims had sold out! We queued for more than 30 minutes at Bhangra Burger , worried that the food would be over by the time we reached the stall.

Luckily we were able to buy their juicy burger wrap, served with homemade chutney and pickles. It was delicious and very spicy! The Bhangra Burgers made miracles of producing more food whenever it seemed they were running out of it and they eventually fed everyone in the queue!

In the meantime, Sandy managed to grab a vegetarian platter from Horn OK Please. I love their Aloo Dosa, sadly they had run out of it, so we tried the Bhel Puri and Pani Puri instead. With extra chilli especially for Sandy — his Indian taste buds required something stronger than the English customers!
For dessert, I bought two of my favourite cheesecakes from the Sweet Tooth Factory. Deep-fried brownie, you say? Yes, I know, it sounds as bad as the deep-fried Mars bar you find in Edinburgh, but NO, it is not bad at all.
It is actually delicious: The famous Big Apple Hot Dogs by Abiye Cole. Pom Pom Japanese dumplings: How I wish I could attend these markets.
I love the sound of the deep-fried brownies! The StockMKT Bermondsey Square Dish Piglets.
