Looks like this weekend going to be sunny all over the south England!! So pleased!!!!!
I am off to Bristol for the important Harbour Festival!
It starts Friday evening and will last all weekend! Feeling in the mood for sunshine, music, dance, circus and food? Then please come to Bristol this weekend!! You still have tomorrow!!
Last weekend I went back to Bristol for the Foodies Festival as well!
After Bristol there are still 3 more foodies festivals going in Edinburgh, London and Oxford. They are hosted by Lakeland so there are really a lot of things going on and the local and national food providers all try to show their best as well!
We've got herbs, fruit, patisserie, wine, apple juice, cheese, ice cream, cocktail etc.
There are so many flavours of vinegar, I personally prefer the raspberry that I tried on Sunday! Yum!
The apple juice was so delicious! I bought 2 bottles and I used it as my champagne during the Harbour Festival today!
A lot of things happened there, I queued for this Jamaican jerk chicken for half hour! But it was really popular and worth the wait!
There was also a sand pit for kids!
Also sales!!!!!! From pan to mixer, well, Lakeland you know!
OK, I am going to introduce something really serious now!!!!
Believe me, it is a real Taiwanese bubble tea! (In case you didn't realize, I am Taiwanese)
I've tried different bubble teas in London and Bristol, but this is the only one that I feel they really use real ingredients and real tea. Even the famous one in London, Bubbleology isn't up to the standards of real good quality Taiwanese Bubble Tea.
But this one, I promise, so good, so cool, so tasty!
They currently only sell from their lovely van and so I think it is also a bit of fun chasing them around! Actually, I had one today as well!!
Besides all this food and drink at the foodies festival there were also chefs cooking lessons and wine and gin masterclasses!
It was a really good event if you are also interested in food and care about the food you get and where it comes from.
The recent news that the supermarkets in the UK are actually paying less to farmers than the cost to produce milk is really shocking to me. If all of the food production is controlled by a few big companies, then the diversity of food in the UK will shrink eventually. And it is really worrying for the future.
Hopefully the milk issue will be solved and it will also improve the situation of farmers in the UK. And go to the festival in London, Oxford or Edinburgh if you have time!
