Foyle Maritime Festival In L'Derry To Get Underway
L'Derrys waterfront will be teeming with activity this weekend as the Foyle Maritime Festival gets underway, with over 180,000 people expected to enjoy the packed programme of family fun and entertainment kicking off on Saturday, 14 July.
The Seafood Kitchen will be turning up the heat along the quay, with a range of local chefs showcasing their skills. They will be joined by top Edinburgh chef Tony Singh, a regular favourite on TV shows such as Saturday Kitchen, who is renowned for his eclectic and accessible cooking style. Derry’s own poster boy for good food Ian Orr will also be serving up some mouth-watering dishes using the very best local ingredients down on the waterfront.
The Seafood Kitchen is located along the Queen's Quay beside the Maritime Markets which will be buzzing throughout the week, with food stalls, crafts and gifts for all. But the Maritime theme is already helping build an appetite for the festival throughout the city with local restaurants jumping on board the Flavours of the Foyle Seafood Trail.
23 participating restaurants will be celebrating seafood this week with a cornucopia of fishy delights on offer including Lough Foyle oysters, Mulroy Bay mussels and delicious seafood wood fired pizzas.
