Gilgamesh launches food market

The Pan-Asian Gilgamesh restaurant in Camden Town, London, is opening a food market later this month and will be available for diners to visit on Monday nights.

The Babylon Lounge will be transformed into a food market reminiscent of the authentic hawker markets found in so many Asian countries. For thousands of years markets have provided a meeting place in many Asian countries and still play a fundamental role in their communal approach to eating.

Diners will be able to move from stall to stall, sampling all the wonders of Pan-Asian cuisine. All dishes will be priced at £3 each and guests will be able to browse different stalls, which offer various delights.

Available will be the Dim Sum Trolley, which will offer dishes such as garlic chive mushroom dumplings and prawn har gau, a Noodles Stall, which will serve malay noodles with tofu, vegetables and egg.

There will also be a Peking Duck Stall serving crispy roast duck pancakes and a Curry Stall, which will serve a selection of dishes including Thai red vegetarian curry with sweet potato, aubergine and Thai basil. Finally, diners can stop off at the Sushi Maki Roll Station to enjoy salmon and avocado rolls and Californian vegetarian inside-out rolls.
