Portobello Road Market | Sampai Sudah

April 2015

It’s worth to mention at the junction of Portobello road and Westbourne Grove you’ll see this store named ‘All Saints Co Ltd’. They manufacture quality garments. The interesting part of the store, there are not particularly many garments on sale compared to the umpteen sewing machine nicely stacked from floor to the ceiling. I consider this as a sewing machine ‘museum’ rather than a garment store and definitely one of London’s secret.

Portobello road, dubbed as the world’s largest antiques market with over 1,000 dealers selling every kind of antique, collectible, new & secondhand good, fashion accessories, fruits, vegetables, talented buskers, etc. Portobello Market takes up most of Portobello Road which stretches for more than 3 km.

Nothing so interesting to us as you’ll find similar trading concept in other parts of the world differently called as weekend market, uptown, downtown, antique street and what not. Nonetheless since we are there, we did walk the full length of the market.

If you arrived by underground via Ladbroke Grove, to your left, Muslim travelers will find a couple of halal eateries. To reach Portobello road, cross the road and follow the A40 highway overhead you till you reach Portobello road. Here, Muslim travelers will find another halal restaurant called Makan. In our Malay language, makan mean ‘eat’. You can even get ‘Teh Tarik’ or tea with milk, Malaysian style here.
