Write a commentAfter a very successful inaugural Food Festival at Newry Market last year, students from the Southern Regional College’s First Year Foundation Degree in International Hospitality & Tourism Management and International Travel & Tourism Management are giving the festival another go!
Newry Food Festival will be held in Newry Market on Friday 22nd April 2016 from 11am to 6pm.
The festival will consist of 4 areas:
• The marketplace featuring local food producers and suppliers - we are looking for the full range of products to be represented – jams, relishes, chutneys, breads, tray-bakes, veg, dairy products, specialty meats, fish, oils, dressings, sauces, confectionary and specialty items.
• A pop-up restaurant area with local restaurants and eateries
• A chef demonstration area
• Live music
Local businesses are bringing a taste of their menus to the heart of Newry – be sure to stop by for lunch, tea, a coffee or snack and even bring some wholesome Northern Ireland produce home to your own kitchen. A range of demonstrations will take place between 12 and 6pm including SRC Catering Students as well as Aine’s Kitchen Cookery School, and live music for everyone to enjoy.
To date the following local businesses are taking part: Café Krem, City Cheese, Crepes 2 Go, Drumnasilla (Unusual Jams, Chutneys, Curds & Marmalades), Flemings Farmhouse Bakery, Harnett’s Oils, Holdens Chocolates, Juice Plus, Long Lane Pantry, Neary Nogs Artisan Chocolate, Price’s Ice-cream, Red Dog Artisan Food, The Gluten Free Patisserie, The Krazi Baker, Passion Preserved, Art Bar Funkel, La Dolce Vita, Made with Love, O’Hares Bakery, Tasty Wee Numbers, Tom & Ollies, Finegan and Sons, Harbour Inn, Ballymoran Meats and Sarah World Fare.
