For those of you who can’t wait until the Clapham Common festival in late July or can’t wait to find out if you’ve won our Foodies Festival Clapham Common competition which closes on Friday 23rd May, then this weekend might be for you.

For those of you who don’t know, Foodies Festival is the UK’s biggest celebration of food and drink and is now in its 10th year. This Bank Holiday Weekend you’ll find them in London’s at Syon Park (23,24,25th May)

Oh and if you’ve never heard of Syon Park, don’t worry neither had we, but from their official park website, it looks very nice indeed. To quote their website “Syon is one of the last great houses of London, and has been in the family of the present owners for more than 400 years. Profoundly historic, the House holds a wealth of art within its grand classical interiors, while the Park and Gardens feel like deep countryside, although barely nine miles from Charing Cross.”

If this sounds posh, you’d be on the money, but you may also be surprised to hear that it is also very close to Brentford Station and is just over the river from Kew Gardens.

Foodies Festival are not surprisingly transforming the gardens into a foodie heaven with celebrity and top local chefs, new tasting theatres, artisan producers and more street food than you can shake a satay stick at!

For Masterchef fans you’ll want to see the award winning celebrity chef Aldo Zilli joined by 2014 MasterChef winner Ping Coombes and 2015 MasterChef finalist Tony Rodd in the Aga Rangemaster Chefs Theatre, where they will cook their favourite summers recipes, inspiring festival-goers to recreate their dishes at home and experiment with new flavours and ingredients.

A BBQ Arena hosts grilling experts who will share their favourite recipes for fans of outdoor dining and King of the Grill Challenges take place throughout the day. For those brave – or foolish enough – the famous Chilli Eating Competition challenges those who like it spicy to try and break the current record of 14 varieties of chillies eaten to win the Chilli Eating Crown.

Little foodies can explore their taste buds and learn basic skills with Picnic in the Park themed masterclasses in the Childrens Cookery Theatre, where Kiddy Cook will show them how to make finger sandwiches, jellies and chocolate bugs.

After a day of food and fun, foodies can relax with a spot on the grass and soak in the atmosphere with live music from the entertainment stage and a glass of bubbly or cocktail from the Giant Pimm’s Teapot or Captain Morgan Mojito Galleon. 

For tickets and other info visit the Foodies Festival website, there is also a discount doing the rounds “Two Tickets & Showguides from £16. Quote ‘FOODIES15‘ when booking” but we haven’t tried it.
