Primrose Hill Summer Street Party


The first really hot Sunday of the year, and the whole of Primrose Hill was ready to embrace summer with its very successful annual fair. The lovely Gillian from Judith Michael and Daughter had been busy organizing for months, and this time stalls of local businesses were accompanied by those from all over London. This was particularly exciting in the food department.

After a few minutes browsing the nick-knacks and vintage dresses, we lingered at one food stall after another, smells taking us from Brittany to the far East. After much deliberation (there really was too much choice) we picked up some sticky, yellow paella, a mixed box of glorious Moroccan salads and a Bahn Mi Vietnamese Baguette, from Bahn Mi 11 who had come over from their outpost in Broadway Market for the day. Placed on sun-dappled grass, this was a perfect pic-nic which sent me into a warm snooze for the afternoon.
