This weeekend in London: The Soho Food Feast

English Version below

La Soho Food Feast sta tornando, questo weekend 8 e 9 giugno presso il St. Anne’s Garden in Wardour Street.

Lo scopo per cui è nata la Soho Food Feast è quello di supportare la Soho Parish School, una piccola scuola elementare nel cuore di Soho che promuove da sempre pasti sani per i suoi alunni.

Conosco personalmente la scuola e trovo che quello che hanno creato per raccogliere fondi e portare avanti il loro programma di educazione all’alimentazione, non solo destinato agli alunni ma anche agli stessi genitori, sia fenomenale. Alla festa troverete alcuni tra i migliori chef e locali di Soho, tra i miei preferiti Polpo, Bone Daddies, Cinnamon Soho, Gelupo, DSTRKT e molti altri.

Tante le attività previste – oltre a mangiare certo 🙂 – food tasting, cake competition, giveaways, scambio di libri di cucina e attività per bambini tra cui la gara di sculture con le verdure, il tradizionale face painting e la decorazione dei grembiuli, tanto per citarne alcuni.

Se pensate di visitare la Soho Food Feast, ricordatevi che i biglietti sono in vendita solo online qui sohofoodfeast.eventbrite.com.
