NO self respecting food lover should miss this remarkable gastronomi­c celebratio­n bringing together the talents of no less than eight of the most talented chefs from around the county.

It’s the gala Harvest Feast from Sligo Food Trail consisting of a sumptuous nine course tasting menu celebratin­g local produce and local skills. The Harvest Feast takes place on Friday 13th October at the Radisson Blu Hotel & Spa.

The chefs read like a gourmet Who’s Who of Sligo. Add to them some of the best producers in the northwest and you begin to see why this evening is something quite extraordin­ary.

The evening begins at 7pm with a drinks reception, but nothing is as it seems on this very special night. The reception includes craft beers from local breweries White Hag and Lough Gill as well as iconic gins from the Draft Housee Gastro Pub and Thomas Connollys and some bubbly Prosecco from Febvre.

The accompanyi­ng canapés are a delicious selection from Coopershil­l House, Hardagons Pub, Osta Café, WB’s Coffee House and Sushi Sisters. And that’s before the Harvest Feast proper even begins!
