Street Feast is the name of this food festival and it is located at Dalston Yard, which you would easily miss if there weren't signs and a massive group of people heading towards the yard. Of course people go there to try the variety of food that each stand has to offer, but going to see just the setting is worth it as well. It is a perfect place to hang out with friends and enjoy some cold beer. There is even a cocktail stand at the back of the yard which is right next to some greenery. Everything about Dalston Yard is great.
Street Feast happens every Friday and Saturday until September starting at 5 PM and ending at midnight. It's free entry until after 7 PM, then you need to pay three pounds to get in.
After eating some delicious food at Street Feast we headed home to rest before the game that everyone had been waiting for: England vs. Italy. This was the first time where I went to a pub to watch a soccer game and it was everything I imagined. Although England did not win I was proud to have a giant England flag draped around me. The whole experience of watching the game was fun and exciting, especially since the pub was split in half. One side were the English supporters and the other side were the Italian supporters. Seeing how captivated everyone was by the game was great to witness. I also meant a few cool people who had some interesting stories to share. So if you're ever in London and happen to be there when the England national team is playing a match or there's a big game coming up, be sure to go to a pub and watch it. I would recommend The Kings Arms in Chelsea, because it had a really nice setting and the people there were all such characters.
I'm going to miss this city and how there's something to see on each corner of every street. I'm going to miss the weather and all the people I've met and how friendly everyone is.
Next Stop: Istanbul
