For the next week and a bit I am based in the West Midlands with tickets for a number of events at the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games. In between enjoying the great sport I am sampling the various foodie delights of the region – starting today with the Saturday Market in the old town of Warwick.
The Market was full of stalls from local producers selling fruit and veg, craft beer, coffee, cakes, cheese and much, much more. You can see a few of these from the photos.
We are self-catering in our motorhome while here, and managed to do our shop for the next few days. This includes a salmon and broccoli quiche and a slice of local cheddar coated in roasted hops – one of my favourite cheeses. Some more of these purchases will feature in future posts.
One of the best things about today’s Market was the big screen showing live action from the Games. So with shopping done, we could sit in a deckchair and watch the marathon live from Birmingham 2022.
Local markets are always interesting to explore, and a great way to get yourself some fresh tasty food while supporting local producers.
