Allianz Garden Show Ireland is embracing the NI Year of Food and Drink 2016 with gusto as it launches its largest food offering to date both in the Food NI Pavilion and in the Food Garden. Throughout the weekend, local chef Paula McIntyre will be demonstrating how to bring the variety of local produce and flavours together and will be joined by local food blogger the Rectors Husband.
The Food Pavilion which is supported by Food NI will also host Cookery Author and Celebrity Chef Maria Elia, on Friday 6th May, who will be giving local food her famous Cypriot twist. Featuring a range of local produce for sale, the Food Pavilion will be home to producers such as Long Meadow Cider which is created from 100% natural apples grown on the family farm in Portadown and Pepp Up a local company making a great healthy alternative to shelf bought tomato ketchups.
The Food Garden at the Show will be filled to the brim with exceptional and unusual local producers creating tasty dishes for visitors to enjoy. The menu will include; delicious steak sandwiches from Armagh based Forthill Farm, seasonal wild game, Cabrito from Broughgammon Farm in County Antrim and tasty homemade pies from Jolly Pies. The Show will set taste buds alight.
If you’re a foodie, you’ll not want to miss out on what is shaping up to be a lively and fun Show. For more information visit www.gardenshowireland.com.
