Street Eats is the food festival bringing you the best halal grub for only £1

Halal food is in high demand for Muslims around the world.

In case youre not aware, halal food is meat that has been killed according to Islamic law, and also includes non-alcoholic drinks and grub.

There arent many festivals to celebrate the special cuisine so Halal Gems, a food discovery platform, is bringing back its annual event.

The festival, Street Eats, is bringing back some of their favourites from last year plus new traders including everything from the best in Venezuelan cuisine and hot dogs to the best jollof rice in town.

And the best part? Entrance to the three-day event is just £1.

And while youre chomping down on burgers, wings, and all kinds of delish desserts, youll have plenty of entertainment.

A line up of talented spoken word artists will lead poetry night, a screening of Netflix show Chefs Table will be aired, and a live interview with Darjeeling Express restaurants Asma Khan.
