A Taste of Christmas in London
Chocolate, cheese, wine and coffee are four of the special tastings promised at the “Taste of Christmas”. The foodie extravaganza will be held from December 3 to 5, 2010, at ExCel London.
A dozen of London’s top restaurants will be serving up seasonal menus of everything from traditional classics to cutting-edge cuisine. There’s lots of shopping at the boutique food and drinks market, where you can also pick up some ideas for your festive feasting.
At the Taste Wine, Taste Cheese, Taste Chocolate and Taste Coffee zones, you can settle down for a wine tasting or sip coffee while learning about the best cheese and chocolate for your Christmas table or a cozy night in. Cooking demos by some of the country’s top chefs are planned.
Tickets at the door are £22, and you pay for your samples with “crowns”, the official currency of Taste of Christmas (buy ‘em in advance or at the show) — £1 = 2 Crowns.
