Fantastic British Food Festival – Sandown Park Food Festival 2016

Fantastic British Food Festival – Sandown Park Food Festival 2016

It wasn’t until earlier this month that I even knew about the Sandown Park Food Festival. A little email popped into my inbox telling me all about the event and asking whether I would like tickets to go. I jumped at the chance, food festivals are my favourite of all festivals.  Last weekend marked the next location in a series of venues across Britain that Fantastic British Food Festivals have organised for the year. With a name like Fantastic British Food Festivals they really are setting the bar high.  At the beginning of the month I went to the Woking Food…

Sadly GBBO winner Nadia Hussain had to drop out at…

Woking Food & Drink Festival 2015

It’s that time of year again. Woking Food & Drink Festival was back for another year and was bigger than ever. Stretching over 3 days, there was an abundance of food and drink stalls, book signings, masterclasses at Tante Marie, BBQ Demonstrations, and live cookery demos from the well known Daniel Britten and Monica Galetti, to the chefs from restaurants around Surrey.  For me Sunday is where it was at. Why? John Whaite of course! I am a humongous Bake Off fan, like super fan, into the fact I am devastated I am going to miss the finale this year (it is…
