Marcus Wareing, Pascal Aussignac, Ian Pengelley and Anna Hansen appeared with hundreds of tomatoes, a bath full of pink candy and a mischievous duck in a bid to raise the festival's profile.

Marcus Wareing said travelling and food are his inspiration, explaining: ''I am a huge fan of travelling, it helps clear my head and gives me a lot of inspiration for my restaurants and dishes. Tomatoes are one of my favourite as I love their versatility and flavour.''

Taste of London takes place 17th-21st June in Regent's Park. Tickets from £16, are on-sale now at london.tastefestivals.com.
