Borough Food Fight

Check this out - apparently seven vendors at Borough Market in London have been evicted because they trade for five-hours a week at Maltby Street in Bermondsey, which isn't even a registered market.

Read the article from The Atlantic here: Artisanal Food Fight: London's Farmers' Market Showdown - Katie Parla - Life - The Atlantic

I agree with Ms. Parla regarding the state of Borough Market at the moment. It's always overrun and I can see how the produce vendors might have a hard time with tourists not buying their products. I look forward to exploring Maltby Street in the future since it seems like place to find the very best. Borough Market is something I can no longer handle.
