Where to find London's best street food

Tubby Isaacs Jellied eels are definitely worth trying. Ask for their special bottle of vinegar, packed with chillies. If you don’t want to try eels, which have been added to the endangered list, go for some whelks or cockles instead. • Two locations: Goulston Street (Petticoat Lane Market), High Street Walthamstow. tubbyisaacs.co.uk . F Cooke’s Pie & Mash The pie and mash here is prepared and sold in much the same way as it has been since the shop opened in 1867. • 150 Hoxton Street, N1; realhoxton.co.uk/f-cooke.htm . Choc Star There is a reason why Petra Barran is the queen of UK street food, and runs the Eat St organisation. Check out her Grand Cru Chocolate brownies and the Venezuelan hot chocolate with a touch of spice. • chocstar.co.uk ; check website for locations. Also see eat.st . Luardo’s Burritos, pork carnitas, beef, chicken or a vegetarian option. If you can take the heat, punch up your meal with a dollop of their fiery habanero chilli sauce.
