First Ferry Food Fayre a Great Success

Ferry Food Fayre Broughty Ferry August 2915
The Ferry Food Fayre held yesterday attracted around a thousand people to the Best Western Woodlands Hotel. The event was free and featured tastings, talks and demonstrations courtesy of some of the town’s bakers, greengrocers, restaurateurs and publicans.

On Sunday night, Jan McTaggart, the main organiser who suggested a food event to the Committee of the Broughty Ferry Traders' Association said:
"It’s been an incredible day. To be honest we were all quite staggered by the sheer numbers of people who came along to The Woodlands Hotel where the ballroom was pretty packed for the first couple of hours. The atmosphere was terrific and I know that several of the stall holders had to run out to replenish supplies. I’m really impressed by all the work that everybody put into the Food Fayre.
All the feedback so far indicates that we’ll need to think bigger and even better if we’re going to do it again!
