Details of the gastronomic delights that we'll be able to partake of at the Palmers Green Food Festival next month are being gradually revealed. One of the highlights will be a London-themed pie baking competition.
The food festival will be held in the "Broomfield Bowl" - the former bowling green which has been the venue for most of this year's Broomfield Summer Festival. It's being organised by Cooking Champions, the community interest company founded by PG resident Clare Donovan that has been doing a sterling job cooking and distributing meals for hungry families.
On the Cooking Champions Facebook page Clare will be gradually revealing which food and drink suppliers will be featured at the festival. So far two we've been told the identity of two of them.
Who will be at the Food Festival?
Cooking Champions have so far revealed the names of two food and drink suppliers who'll be at the Festival.
Old Bakery Gin
A very local gin with an amazing story, based in a 120-year old bakery where 100 years ago they distilled and sold illegal gin. Now totally legal and taking the world by storm, you will be able to sample their excellent gin and rum at the festival.
MyTime Delicatessen, Grocer, Greengrocer, Juice Bar
Based in Palmers Green, they stock a wide range of high quality, organic and free-from products, as well as organic vegetables, smoothies and great coffee. They've supported Cooking Champions with food donations for their Covid response.
