BBC Good Food Show SECC

BBC Good Food Show SECC 6-8        November

The BBC Good Food Show Scotland, sponsored by Lexus, is once again returning to the SECC, Glasgow from 6-8 November and bringing the very best Scottish delicacies and chefs with it. Visitors can enjoy live cookery demonstrations in the Supertheatre sponsored by Kenwood and learn top culinary tips from familiar faces Paul Hollywood, James Martin, Tom Kitchin, Mary Berry plus Michel Roux Jr. as he makes his debut in Glasgow this year.

Visitors can have their culinary queries answered by Scotland’s finest chefs, such as Neil Forbes, Andrew Fairlie and Marcello Tully, as they get a friendly grilling on the Interview Stage sponsored by Lakeland and share the secrets of their success.

In addition, the book shop run by WHSmith features a large collection of the latest and popular cook books at great show prices. Visitors can pop along and make a purchase, and take the opportunity to have it signed by the chef themselves.

This year, the ultimate celebration of Glasgow’s vibrant dining scene, the Pop-Up Restaurants feature, presented in association with the Glasgow Restaurant Association, brings one of the City’s top restaurants along to the Show each day, giving visitors the opportunity to taste their signature dishes. Friday brings The Gannet with their modern take on classic cooking; sample dry-aged meats and molecular cooking from one of Glasgow’s gems, Porter & Rye, on Saturday and on Sunday, award-winning restaurant Red Onion will be bringing new interpretations of classic Scottish cookery to the Show.

2015 celebrates the Year of Food and Drink Scotland, highlighting the country’s outstanding natural larder and produce. From artisan cheeses and world-renowned whiskies, to scrumptious Scottish shortbread, there is an abundance of delicious regional flavours around every corner.

Visitors will be able to savour the flavours of Glasgow and enjoy the best of Scottish produce in the Regional Food Pavilion. This area of the Show highlights the richness and diversity of the country’s natural larder, giving visitors the chance to meet producers and taste and buy interesting local products from the various regions of Scotland including Perthshire, East Lothian and the Highlands. In addition, visitors can stock up on the best of speciality food and artisan produce in the Producers’ Village. Within the village, they will find areas dedicated to Scottish regional producers, enthusiastic artisans from further afield and prize winning producers. Visitors can also pop-by and show their support to Roots Fruits and Flowers, the clear and well deserved winner of the coveted title of Glasgow’s Best Independent Food Shop. After all this shopping, visitors can make full use of The Shop & Drop supported by Guide Dogs for the Blind, where they can drop off their shopping for collection later, leaving them free to relax and enjoy the Show.

The BBC Good Food Show team has been searching the UK and Ireland to find the most outstanding artisan food and drink producers. The Producers’ Bursary Awards called for applications from small artisan producers with companies carefully shortlisted and all entries tasted at the BBC Good Food Test Kitchens by a team of experts. Visitors to the show will be able to meet, taste and buy from this year’s impressive winners, including handmade scotch eggs and sausage rolls from Aye Love Real Food and gourmet popcorn from Poporopo Amaizing Popcorn.

If visitors are keen for a tipple during the day, they can join a 30-min Cocktails at Home Masterclass and learn how to make incredible tasting, party-starting festive drinks in just a few simple steps. Cocktail gurus Tom & Frankie will get visitors making delicious drinks using easy to access ingredients that they can re-create at home.
