Woo Lot Ginkgo

I find myself cycling back home past the Woo Lot Ginkgo often.

At night its neon signs glow green and light up the street. The same neon flavour as the food I imagine, neon all the way to a different place.

Neon, not an unfamiliar thing in Walthamstow, have you ever been to gods own junkyard? It’s a neon haven, sickly acid colours add to the flavours of street food and microbrewery’s at Ravenswood, it’s all local and ever changing.

 In the daytime Woo Lot is like a gate house to Walthamstow, but looking more like an American diner and the Ginkgo holds the fort standing in as a palm tree. Another surprising pop of ‘other place’ on the Lea Bridge Road trip.
