Bristol Food Connections Festival

It is so great to live Bristol and the thriving food scene there.  Back in May I got the chance to check out the Food Connections Festival celebrating good food from growing to eating!

Queens Square with tipis
Moroccan wrap filled with aubergine, herby salad and a glorious pesto from Moorish

Loved the food at Moorish.... http://bristoleats.co.uk/moorish/ . amazing flatbread wrapping up  smoky aubergine, a fresh pesto and a crunchy herby salad.....

Ah Ma's Dumplings
The highlight for me were Ah Ma's Dumplings.  Fresh Cantonese style dumplings made with savoy cabbage, carrots, shiitake mushrooms, cashew nuts, ginger and spring onions..... They regularly appear at the Tobacco Factory at the Sunday market and at Temple Quay Market.  Really something to seek out if you are in Bristol. http://ahmasdumplings.com

Grow Bristol

Great to hear about this project in Bristol. Grow Bristol is a new urban farming enterprise developing innovative and sustainable ways of growing food in the city for the benefit of all its inhabitants and the wider world. They are starting with Grow Box; a system of aquaponics to produce vegetables and fish right in the middle of Bristol. What an exciting project to follow.  Check out more information on www.growbristol.co.uk.
