So as we had mentioned in our previous post, we headed off to Eat, Drink and Discover Scotland the other week (Scotland’s largest celebration of Scottish food & drink – what better way to spend a Sunday right?). We had a great time sampling all that was on offer and of course spent way too much! Below is our day in pictures:
The Celeb Chefs on Show!
There were various demonstrations ongoing throughout the day, this if I remember rightly was an ice cream making demonstration. We’re more eating ice cream fans rather than making.
We both had a delicious buffalo burger with cheese from The Buffalo Farm
We tried a few samples from the wonderful selection at Trotters Condiments stall. Who also very kindly donated a selection for our hamper giveaway.
We didn’t get round to trying Simple Simons Perfect Pies in the end but they looked fab!
Supernature were present. Who also featured in our hamper giveaway
You could actually practice your cow milking technique if so inclined.. We didn’t
Jacqueline O’Donnell in action during the masterclass theatre cook-along
We had a nice chat with our friend Sheena from Galloway Chillies & bagged ourself some ghost and habanero chillies among others to experiment with
There were another couple of exhibitor stalls who’s goods we sampled but didn’t manage to get images of, but are certainly worth a mention: I tried the most amazing rum and raisin flavoured fudge from The Galloway Fudge Company, and bought some to take home with me which didn’t last long. We also sampled a few of the excellent cheeses on offer from The Damn Fine Cheese Company (one of which ended up in our hamper also).
We had a great day at Eat, Drink and Discover Scotland and the whole 3 day event was a roaring success with plans already underway for next years event. It looks like this will be another regular event in the foodie calender so we will see you there next year!
