2. No trip to London is complete without a visit to Selfridges Food Hall. Selfridges represents a shining example of how ‘the other half’ shop but also a really enjoyable culinary experience; an assault on all the senses – sights, smells, sounds. The inclusion of EAT and Chop’d concessions also provide a more accessible angle and of course reason to visit. Click here to see some of the dishes we were inspired by at Selfridges >>

4. Kumru is a traditional street food Turkish sandwich made with grilled salami sausage and cheese. Filled with what is described as meat spaghetti, it takes the popular kebab and even greater popularity of pulled meats to a whole new level – watch the video on how to make a Kumru sandwich here >> We also love the sound of baked cheese cups from Milch in Thailand – with a savoury twist they could be the next mac n’ cheese with added bacon or chorizo.

As part of a new focus on free-from options Sainsbury’s will now offer bacon, lettuce & tomato and cheese ploughman’s sandwiches on gluten free bread.

8. Beef has overtaken chicken as the top protein for out of home dinners, now featuring in 1 in 4 main meals according to MCA’s Menu & Food Trends 2017, driven by the increased popularity of eg gourmet burgers among women and the over-35s. Keen to tap into this is
The Counter, the latest in a wave of US burger chains to hit the UK, with its first store opening in Glasgow next month.
