London Pop-ups

Afuego Latin American street food are now serving 6 days a week at The Brick Brewery taproom in Peckham, cooking out of the container kitchen in the front yard. Afuego, led by chef Yassir, serve up excellent burgers and tacos, the former with a Latin American twist (their signature burger has a layer of carnitas). The tacos also come highly recommended - well filled with generous portions.

All perfect food to go with the brewery's excellent beers!

Sho Foo Doh's Japanese Okonomiyaki at the Pretty Decent Beer Co Taproom in Forest Gate, E7

Sho Foo Doh, aka chef Fumio Tanga, has been popping up around London for over 10 years, serving his fantastic Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki, a sort of Japanese pancake filled with all sorts of goodness including noodles, bean shoots, cheese and kimchi. He has just taken over the kitchen at The Pretty Decent Beer Co's taproom in Sheridan Road, Forest Gate, E7, serving his Japanese street food, including the okonomiyaki and other smaller plates like sesame panko cauliflower.

It is serving Thursdays to Sundays - evenings on the week nights, and then all day at the weekends. Highly recommended, especially as the taproom is one of London's best.
