Throughout June, Connaught Village will be hosting a World Food Journey offering foodies the opportunity to taste some culinary delights from all over the world without leaving London.
The World Food Journey will be made up of cuisine from Europe, The Middle East and South America, with the following restaurants in Connaught Village offering a small, signature dish throughout the whole of June: Abasto, Assal Patisserie, Bombay Palace, Buchanans Cheesemonger, Colbeh, Connaught Cellars, Saint Aymes, Le Pain Quotidien and Stuzzico.

This is not a ticketed event. Each restaurant welcomes walk-ins, although booking is advised over busy service periods with the individual restaurants/cafés.
