Meet Martin, The Mayfair Foodie
Hi, I’m Martin, the Mayfair Foodie.
I was born in London and have seen the city develop into one of the world’s food capitals. With so many foodies like me, the UK has a vibrant and diverse food scene that is an exciting place to explore.
My love of food was evident from a very early age. When I was 18 months old, my parents took me on holiday to Rimini in Italy. My mom packed a suitcase full of Heinz baby foods, convinced I would not like the local cuisine. However, I tucked into pasta and gelato, and the Heinz baby food was repacked and taken home.
From then on, I was hooked on food. I love everything about it, from field to fork.
As a foodie, I have always wanted to do something connected with the hospitality industry. That’s why I created The Mayfair Foodie, a website and walking tours that champion the fantastic restaurants, bars, and pubs of Mayfair, an area of London that is close to my heart.
