Broadway Market that is. OMG, HOW have I not known about this area of London?! It’s just a 15-minute bus ride East of here. It is this adorable street that leads right down to Regent’s Canal at the bottom, and up to a pretty little park called London Fields at the top. Have posted a few pics online, as well as some very belated photos from last month’s Thames Festival, which included a tour of City Hall!
But back to Broadway Market, which has tons of great independent shops, including the Broadway Bookshop, and many great cafes. My good friend Nineta was in town this weekend (she’s livin’ the dream working in the culture section of the EU and London) and her former flatmates recommended we hit this area for brunch. Will definitely return to La Vie en Rose for their “French Brunch” special again! Only 7 pounds and the most mouth-watering pain au chocolate I’ve ever had. Our French theme continued as we then went to the V&A for their “Golden Age of Couture – Paris & London” exhibition. Anyone visiting between now and January 6 – we are soo going back to this. Dior, LaCroix, Fath, Galliano Balenciaga – films, videos, dresses, dresses and more dresses. The VA& really ‘makes it work!”
