Harrods Foodhall = My Type of HeavenMy eyes popped to the size of mountain oysters when I walked into the Harrods Foodhall with my friend Brooke a few weeks ago. We were both Harrods virgins and the smell and beauty of it all had us captivated, as our mouths drooled and stomachs churned in ecstasy.
From a Chinese Dim Sum bar, to a Japanese Sushi bar, to tiny salmon bagel canapes and the vast array of pastries and bread that you can imagine. Man was I gobsmacked! I didn't know what to choose or where to start?! On the best of days I'm terrible with making decisions about food but this day, there was just TOO MANY good things to choose from, and my pocket money unfortunately did not stretch to all of them...
My eyes rested on pies, I have been wanting to gorge on a pie ever since I got here, I think it's because I can't have them, or they just aren't what I'm used to that makes me want one so bad! However once again too many to choose from so my eyes got distracted at the variety of quiches and tarts on offer....
Then, once again distracted, my nostrils got the better of me and all of a sudden I was in front of a hot roast beef sandwich counter. The sandwich, which was served with rocket, tomato and a condiment of your choice, horseradish was mine, engulfed in a baguette I couldn't have put the sandwich together better myself!
Brooke settled on a onion and feta tart with a gourmet side salad which was equally as taste-tastic!
The luxury of perusing Harrods and then eating picnic style in Hyde Park on a beautiful sunny but crisp day in London was delightful. An experience one must do again! Next time with more money and lots more food!
EAT A PIE WOMAN! You know you need it!
