Diners in London can now enjoy a new food experience that includes seemingly unpalatable ingredients like whale vomit, and TV dinners you can scratch and sniff.

 

The History of Food by Bompas and Parr offers more than 700 years of food history in one epic gastronomic installation.

Wobbling jellies, tacky sugar sculptures, and corridors full of psychedelic mushrooms. Welcome to the History of Food.

Culinary architects Bompas and Parr have transformed a five-floor London building into an epicurean adventure.

They offer a pioneering walk-through dining experience, which allows people to wander through and devour key revolutionary periods in food history.

Sam Bompas, from Bompas and Parr, said, "It's the ultimate dining experience. An edible epic so vast, so grand and so magnificent it actually spans 730 years of history."

Harry Parr said, "So it's a walk-through dinner adventure and we're taking people right back in time 730 years ago to start on an amazing quest."

Visitors are greeted in a medieval ship, where they are given a personalized cocktail and canape - depending on the diner's mood.
