Food Map of Waterloo

I’ve seen maps of food locations in London before, but not one actually made of food. Food 4 Thought, created by artist Ali Zaidi a few years ago, for “Multiwalks”, a mobile tours platform, has a distinctly organic feel to it. Lower Marsh, a street full of eateries near Waterloo station, is mapped in detail with food items. The nearby street structure is also mapped out in a similar way, with building areas made out of lentils, a nearby public park made out of green peas, and the trains in Waterloo Station itself represented with long lines of red kidney beans. The effect is rather delicious!

Some more information about the project is here. The graphic accompanied a mobile app walking tour that is sadly no longer available to download.
