Taste Of London: just a way to rinse money out of people with no taste?

Next month, Taste of London – which claims to be ‘the world’s greatest restaurant festival’ – starts in Regent’s Park. From 16th June to the 19th June, the park is set to be transformed into a carnival of gourmet delights – a Gastro-nbury, if you will. Or not. London’s finest and flashiest chefs will erect temporary temples to their more permanent restaurants, the idea being, I suppose, that punters can yomp Michelin-starred food without paying Michelin-starred prices. Under the late spring sun you can sample dishes from the likes of Le Gavroche, Gauthier, and The Ritz, avoiding the starched dining rooms themselves and instead galumphing around getting hosed on cocktails. Good fun, undoubtedly, but worth the pelf?
