peckish was thrilled to receive a last minute invite to this popular food fair that took place at the Old brickworks in the don valley. Despite being reclaimed and re-purposed as a community environmental centre, the factory maintains its industrial aesthetic. As such, it is an ideal space to host a social food market as it fills nicely with food and drink vendors. That night home cooks, caterers, student chefs, and budding restaurateurs prepared foods from a variety of cuisines. The lines were long and several dishes sold out but we managed to sample fare from many of the vendors. The majority of what we tried was tasty, tasty, tasty. Below are pics from our favorite samplings. Next time, we will definitely arrive early so as not to miss out on anything!
