Jedi Raid on Borough Market

Saturday would prove to be a day of two halves, and maybe a period of extra time thrown in for good measure. Let's kick-off with the first-half.

The day started early, Lady LDN needed to get her hair done and as has become the practise I took advantage of this early start to the weekend, by mounting a Jedi raid on Borough market, partly due to being up and energised and also the fact that I singed my forehead a little messing around on very fast RIBs the day before I wanted to avoid the midday sun.

Fast forward a few hours and I'm back at base, fully fed courtesy of Maria's cafe, with 3KG of Ethiopian coffee (for the office's Coffee Snobs Club), two stuffed Chicken breasts (my food for the week), some cakes for the girl's return, and a veritable feast of goodies for Sunday lunch, more of which later - but the centre-piece are three substantial rib-eye steaks from the Ginger Pig butchers...

...and here's the killer, I hadn't even missed Saturday kitchen.

The Jedi raid on Borough Market certainly comes highly recommended from me, when I arrived just around 8.30am - there was only a few professional shoppers like myself and most of the traders were up and ready - perhaps even earlier can be achieved, I don't truly know what time it opens - the website says 11am - but that is clearly propoganda to keep the tourists at bay for a few hours. Monmouth Coffee was still rammed!
