On my first trip to the festival when it opened on the Friday I made a beeline straight for the Churros from Love Churros. Served from the back of a converted horse box these Instagram worthy sugary goodies were worth the stop! You can find them in London and pop ups so keep you eye out!
My dad who joined me on my trip took a big liking to a brewery called Small Beer Brew Co., which he discovered during one of the tasting sessions at the drinks theatre. They specialise in brewing beer that solely produces small beer 0.5-2.8% ABV. They were serving pints from the back of their Mini Bar which I thought seemed very fitting! Their brewery is based in South Bermondsey so if you are near by go check them out!
Next up I visited my friends at Pasta Evangelist who were serving up delicious pasta at the festival and showcasing their service. They are predominately a company that specialises if delivering pasta to homes across the UK to prepare with sauces and garnishes that all come along side the fresh pasta. You may have seen my post on them before when I ordered from them here. I devoured the Beef Shin Ragù with Tagliatelle. During my time at the festival they always seemed to be going down a storm!
The next day my first foodie find was The Meat Men. These guys know their meat, they were serving up steak in buns and let me tell you this was the best steak in a bun I think I'll ever have in my life! My sirloin was cooked to absolute perfection and I could have easily gone for seconds. If you have the chance to try their produce then do!
I followed my steak with a Duck Platter from Crispy Duck Rotisserie, which consisted of julienne cucumber, spring onion topped with crispy duck and house hoisin sauce all served with twice cooked duck fat chips. A few people with me also had the crispy duck wraps and really enjoyed them too!
To end on a sweet note I went for a Lotus Biscuit Rolled Ice Cream from Sweet N Delish. Watching them being made is super mesmerising and I could watch them all day, but mine didn't hang around long as it nearly in the 30s and super sunny!
The Foodies Festival is heading to Edinburgh next on the 2nd-4th August! You can still get tickets here! I'm so grateful to have gotten to experience the festival and was kindly gifted the tickets.
*AD Gifted tickets but all the food at the event was paid for myself
