Food and eating is about so much more than satisfying hunger. It is a chance to enjoy through the palate new experiences and sensations. Much like reading a new book, every dish is a chapter that tells a unique story of culture, tradition, and history. As Auguste Escoffier once said: “Good food is the foundation of genuine happiness.” Wouldn’t it be amazing if you were able to experience some of the best foods in the country, all in one place? This summer, you can. Prepare to tantalise your tastebuds and embark on the ultimate gastronomic adventure at the Savour Food Festival in London.

Award-winning chefs from Michelin-star restaurants, talented up-and-comers, and local food artisans will be uniting to provide an unmissable culinary experience at the London Food Festival. With over 120 food and drink showcases, you can be sure that there’ll be plenty of delights to encounter. With so many options for you to choose from, it’s the perfect opportunity to try something new and explore the culinary landscape of London. The festival offers more than just good food though. It provides an evocative experience for all the senses. As well as the promise of mouth-watering flavours and smells, there will be live music performances, engaging workshops, and captivating chef demonstrations. You’ll also have the pleasure of admiring stunning scenery, as the festival is located in the charming surroundings of the historic Royal Hospital Chelsea.

A FEAST FOR THE SENSES

Food lovers attending the festival will be able to witness the diverse and vibrant culinary scene that London has to offer. This year, the festival will be hosting restaurants that offer equally as impressive culinary experiences as last year. Gaucho produces Argentinian staples, boasting of using only the best quality steak. However, if you’re looking for something with a little more spice, you can try out the traditional Indian flavours of Kricket. This restaurant uses locally sourced ingredients to capture the true essence of India’s flavours, aromas, and spices. Since opening as a tiny 20-seat shipping container in 2015, Kricket has expanded to three bustling restaurants and a bar named SOMA, proving its popularity. You can also expect to experience the mouth-watering fusion of the Italian and Japanese cuisine of Angelina. The skilled chefs of this restaurant expertly blend flavours to create unique and unforgettable omakase and kaiseki tasting menus. To complement your meals, you can indulge in a glass of wine or a refreshing beverage such as a craft beer to quench your thirst.

MASTER THE CRAFT

Attendees of the festival can look forward to the thrilling prospect of live demonstrations, as well as taking part in workshops. Last year, Savour hosted a range of iconic chefs such as MasterChef Finalist Philli Armitage Matten, esteemed chef Thomas Straker, and Karan Gokani from Hoppers. They performed live cooking demonstrations, allowing guests to witness their skilled craft first-hand. So, when you’re feeling like you can’t possibly eat any more food, you can take a break to learn some of the tricks of the trade.

Savour Festival is a celebration of gastronomic artistry. Whether you’re a foodie looking to try out undiscovered flavours or keen for a fun day out with family and friends, prepare to discover the best of London’s food and drink scene while also honouring the history of Royal Hospital Chelsea.
