Welcome to this the third
annual Falkirk International Food Festival, a fun
event which brings together the very best in
hotels, restaurants, and food shops in the
Falkirk area in a celebration of good food.
This year, following in
the footsteps of Loyd Grossman and Brian Turner,
Scottish chef, writer and TV personality Nick
Nairn will pay a visit to the Festival at main
sponsors, Beancross Restaurant, at around noon on
Saturday 24th July. Come along and see him in
person where he will be signing copies of his
book Wild Harvest.
We are once again most grateful to all the
sponsors of this event for their assistance and
encouragement, and on behalf of them, and the
many fabulous participating businesses, may we
take this opportunity to welcome you to this
year's Falkirk International Food Festival.
The third annual Falkirk
International Food Festival takes place this year
between the 22nd and 31st July. As in the two
previous years, the Festival will feature dozens
of culinary events being staged in the area's
many fine restaurants, pubs, hotels, takeaways
and shops.
The Festival will feature
the anual open air event in Falkirk High Street
on Saturday 24th July where a number of local
businesses will give away free tastings of food
to shoppers in the town. One of the highlights of
last year's Festival was a version of Ready
Steady Cook which was
staged in the town's Callendar Square Shopping
Centre, with the head chefs from two of the
area's hotels battling it out for culinary
supremacy. This popular event will be repeated
this year also on Saturday 24th.
There are many
events and promotions to whet your appetite in
the varied programme of events. We hope you have
a great time visiting the Falkirk area - Enjoy!
