The Maltby St Market Lock-In

Tasting, cooking & drinking behind the scenes at London's most exciting food market

Maltby St Market, hidden away in a series of railway arches near London Bridge, has only been in existence for a year and only opens on Saturdays for a few hours but has already been voted London's best food market at the BBC Food & Farming awards.

Florian of Foodtri.ps & Rachel of Catalan Cooking will show you around the market, introduce you to traders and have you try their produce. What's more, there will be an extended after market session at one of the arches where you'll get to cook (and eat) with some of the best produce available, from Spanish delicacies to British cheeses, beer brewed in the market, Essex oysters and Austrian speck.

The Maltby St Lock-In: Social gathering, serious food geekism and a chance to get in touch with traders and producers who love what they do and let you have a bite. What could be better?
