SIPPIN’ ON GIN & JUICE
The tastiest foodie news so far this year is that Eat Drink Bristol Fashion is coming back, at a new, larger site at Castle Park between 2-3 May. Tickets are now on sale, and among those planning to part you from your hard-earned are Little French, The Pony & Trap, Root, Woky Ko, Bravas, Paco Tapas – and those are just the Bristol restaurants working the Bristol Taste Tent, where you can sample dishes for a fiver. Meanwhile, over at The Banqueting Tent, Josh Eggleton, Romy Gill and Peter Sanchez-Iglesias will be collaborating with visiting guest chefs; Team Love are curating the music, and the fourth and final banquet of the weekend will see Bristol’s Futureboogie DJs providing the musical backdrop. We’ll see familiar and new faces take to The Demo Stage to share their culinary skills over the weekend, and in addition to the food and feasting, there’s a host of live acts and DJs at The Band Stand, with Doreen Doreen, Red Ray & The Reprobates and Steve Rice on the Saturday line-up and Laid Blak, The 45s and Queen Bee on Sunday. More in our next issue, if we can track Josh down.
