Fathers Day - Portobello Road Market Tour Article by Red Letter Days
Yet another family occasion is due to roll around, burning yet more holes in our pockets and burning more cheeks with embarrassment when our loved ones open yet another bottle of wine, box of chocolates and average card. With Fathers Day just around the corner, why not break the mould this year and arrange something truly special for Dad?
Celia Brooks Brown is an accomplished professional cook and food writer who has made countless appearances on TV, starting with vegging out in 2001 and continuing with Saturday Kitchen, Market Kitchen, Great Food Live in The UK and the Vicky Gabereau show in Canada. Celia also frequently conducts her Gastrotours, an insider's guide to the best secret food spots around London.
Gastrotours are sweeping the nation; developed as a way to teach, entertain and inspire lovers of quality food by using some of London's foodie hotspots as the platform. Celia Brooks Gastrotours are a unique opportunity to join her for a special insider's view of London's vibrant culinary hotspots. Dad can have the time of his life being whisked around London to some of the finest food-spots around.
Portebello Road is knows as one of the funkiest, lively street markets in London, but very few are truly aware of the incredibly culinary delights dotted around this famous neighbourhood. As a former Notting Hill resident, Celia is equipped with all of the local food knowledge and will let you in on the wonderful scene of food shops, restaurants, introducing you to some trendy and eclectic destinations. Dad will be able to taste his way around the area, including fine hams, cheese and olives at Garcia's Spanish Deli.
Dad can enjoy tea and cake at Books for Cooks and sample the best wine from their vineyard in France. Top this off with a sensory awakening at The Spice Shop, a discount at Ceramica Blue, a taste of English cheese and Italian gelato, rounded off with a comparison of two fine wines at Jeroboam's.
This special Father's Day will conclude brilliantly with a special tasting and demonstration in the kitchen of Melt, the wonderful, dedicated chocolate boutique. A fresh chocolate is unlike any other type of food as Celia will vouch for, and here you will be able to take in the sight, touch, smell and taste of these delicious freshly-made chocolates.
Look no further for a special gift idea for Dad this year and give him a day out to remember.
