1. Trying ALL the restaurants
There are a lot of restaurants that have already been announced for this year's Taste including Mayfair’s contemporary Anatolian place Ruya, The Hoxton’s neighbourhood British restaurant Rondo, and sustainably sourced seafood spot Faber along with French treats from Chelsea's Le Petit Beefbar.

2. Being inspired at The Cook School
There's a star-studded line-up planned for the hands-on masterclasses at Cook School sponsored by Lee Kum Kee. Chefs and influencers taking part include Rahel Stephanie (founder of Indonesian supper club Spoons), the best-selling author and former Head Chef and co-founder of Little Viet Kitchen Thuy Diem Pham along with Dominique Woolf who won Jamie Oliver’s Channel 4 show The Great Cookbook Challenge.
3. Gathering round The Fire Pit
Live fire enthusiasts should head here for a range of demonstrations from a great line-up. On this year's roster, there's restauranteur Ben Tish, the 2023 World Food Championship finalist and Cue Point's live fire pit master Mursal Saiq. Other folk taking part include chef Andy Beynon from Michelin-starred restaurant Behind, and former Bubala head chef and meat-free pioneer Helen Graham.
4. Drinks in the park
What better way to enjoy a summer's day than trying one of the many bars and drinks experiences at Taste of London? Here for the first time will be Orchard Pig serving ice-cold cider. Top rosé producer Château La Coste will be turning its corner of Regent's Park into a slice of Provence or you could hit up the el Jimador Van for a spot of Mexican fiesta fun. And if you're after refreshment without the booze, search out Citizen Spritz who'll be serving up their non-alcoholic mixed drinks.
5. Brushing up on your BBQ skills
This summer, BBQ Cook School is back at Taste of London with another exciting collection of masterclasses. Get tips from live fire expert and chef, Genevieve Taylor and Taste of London veteran and cofounder of Hoppers, Karan Gokani. There are also sessions with Opeluwa Odutayo and Jason Howard from The Future Plate to look out for, both showcasing African and Caribbean cuisine.
