A tiny beachside seafood hut is one of the winners of the BBC Food and Farming Awards which were announced at a ceremony hosted in Wales for the first time. The BBC Food & Farming Awards were launched in 2000, to mark the 20th anniversary of Radio 4’s The Food Programme. The mission statement then - which remains true to this day - was “to honour those who have done most to promote the cause of good food”.
At the awards ceremony, which took place at the National Museum in Cardiff, beachside food hut, The Celtic Cabin scooped the award for Best Streetfood/Takeaway, facing hot competition from Kent-based The Snack Shack and London's Pabellon.
The Celtic Cabin is owned by Suzy Simpson and Paul Thomson and can be found on the front at Barmouth, Gwynedd, where they serve wraps, mackeral fritters, pulled pork, cakes, coffees and loads more. Their popularity is evident as they secured a place on the Food & Farming Awards through nominations from regulars and customers.
