Capital cuisine
And so to London: throughout his journey Andrew has been bowled over by the rich diversity of cuisine found from coast to coast. But nowhere is this variety more condensed than in the capital.
Andrew visited Bompass and Parr - the city's only jelly mongers - who were busy creating a host of wobbly works of art, from a gelatinous St Paul's to a glow-in-the-dark jelly. He stopped by at The Kitchen at Parsons Green where people were conjuring up their own ready-meals in someone else's kitchen using someone else's equipment and leaving someone else the mess. He popped into pop-up restaurant Flash at the Royal Academy for a mealtime muse about food as art. Then finally, he took a dawdle around Dulwich with food blogger Helen Graves.
But alas, all good things must come to an end and after seven months on the road it's time for Andrew to put down his knife and fork and reflect on his culinary journey. From mussel men in Scotland to jelly artists in London, Britain is brimming with dedicated producers, inventors and farmers whose personal food history make the nation what it is - a food destination to be proud of.
