25.03.08 The Food & Drink Expo 2008
The Howel Food Consultancy together with Capital Cuisine has been awarded the important task of creating a distinctive presence under the Wales True Taste banner for the Food & Drink Expo 2008. The Food & Drink Expo is one of the most exciting UK exhibition for sourcing the latest and most innovative food and drink products and services. It will host a large gathering of UK regional food and beverage companies as well as more than 30 international pavilions from all over the world. Nerys Howell and Colin Gray will be using a new concept to showcase Welsh brands and produce will be used for the food show presentation which is based on ‘sushi style conveyer belts’.
A theatre style kitchen will allow visitors to see the Welsh chefs in action while preparing dishes using elements of the exhibiting producers’ ingredients and True Taste Award winning produce. Dishes will then be placed on the conveyer belt extending out, enabling consumers to taste the finished product. The Food & Drink Expo takes place at the NEC in Birmingham between 6-9 April.
29.02.08 Welsh National Opera Falstaff Gala
Nerys has been busily preparing for another St David’s Day celebration. On the first of March this year, Bryn Terfel will be performing Falstaff for the first time in Wales (go to the WNO’s website for more information http://www.wno.org.uk/what.otherPerformance.172.html). Nerys has created a truly operatic Welsh menu inspired by the forest themes of Falstaff and using True Taste award winning produce. As well as this, she has devised a selection of canapés to be served as a prelude as well as during the interludes of the performance. This promises to be a wonderful evening, pleasing all senses!! As a preview of all this, Nerys was featured in the Western Mail Magazine on Saturday February 23 showcasing some of her recipes and an interview showing how a Welsh menu for St David’s day doesn’t have to bee all traditional.
