Wokingham food and drink festival - this weekend!
The Wokingham Food and Drink Festival is only a few days away! From Friday September 5 to Sunday September 7, festival-goers will be able to test chefs from Miltons restaurant at Cantley House Hotel to a Ready Steady Cook-style challenge. The members of the public will have the chance to select any three or four ingredients from stalls at the festival and present them for the chefs to prepare a tasty dish from.
As well as this Wokingham challenge, the Miltons’ chefs will be kept busy through the weekend as they will be preparing delights such as venison fillet with blueberry and mint mash and sea bass with sweet corn and samphire salsa for visitors to try. They will also be demonstrating how to cook dishes such as duck terrine and blue cheese tartlet.
To wash down these treats, visitors will be able to sample Premier Cru and Grand Cru Champagnes from Premier Champagnes. Other exhibitors confirmed include Pilgrim’s Choice, Gourmet Med, Spanish Wine Company, a Polish Beer Bar and Butler’s Farm Food.
Wokingham town centre manager Brian Newman said: “Whatever your taste, the Wokingham Food and Drink Festival will have something for you. From Polish beers to the finest Champagne and from Indian delicacies to British roast beef, everybody will be catered for. But the festival is about more than food – it is about fun and there will be music and dancing and children’s entertainment all through the weekend, so I would urge people not to miss out.”
As well as the food and drink on offer, the Wokingham festival will include a licensed bar, children’s fun fair and, on Friday and Saturday nights, there will be music from local bands from 5pm to 10pm. The festival will be in Elms Field, Wokingham, from 10am on each day and will go on until 10pm on Friday and Saturday and 5pm on Sunday. For more information contact Brian Newman on (0118) 974 0889.
