One of the best foodie events in every hungry punter's calender is back and bursting with flavour this weekend. The Abergavenny Food Festival has confirmed it will still go ahead in the Monmouthshire market town on Saturday, September 17 and Sunday, September 18 and there will be the chance for visitors to commemorate the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
A portrait will be displayed within the grounds of Abergavenny’s castle over the festival weekend which will be decorated with flowers and visitors are invited to view this display and take a moment for quiet reflection. There will also be an opportunity to sign a book of condolence and light a candle at St Mary’s Priory Church.
Introducing what you can expect to experience at the festival itself, the festival says: "Fish 'n' chips or Tibetan dumplings? Gower Cottage Brownies or edible flowers? Seaweed rum or seeds for your garden? The Festival weekend is all about sensory extremes and subtle contrasts; an explosion of chilli, a long cold beer. Share amazing food with family and friends and celebrate our creative and spirited food community...."
