‘food’

We set a date!!

Wednesday, April 13th, 2011

Golly Gosh… (we heard that on telly at the weekend for the first time in ages … ‘oooo it has to be a golly gosh moment doesn’t it.. ‘) and thought it would be a good opener for our nice news!

The first event is brought to you fresh from The Seven Hills of Sheffield. Saturday 2nd July. 10am -4pm

We thought it polite to kick the series off with a name like CHEF:FIELD with a celebration of the amazing producers of Sheffield!

A tasting hall in its truest form. Think of a place you can come and try and then buy the finest food our region has to offer.

A collection of 30 fine producers and suppliers all in one room laid out gastronomic feast style upon the 25ft historic tables of The Chimney House. Imagine a feast that stretches the whole length of a room and you’ll be thinking of our tasting hall.

Peruse giant vessels crammed with foods from the region, enjoy, savour and relish your food, speak directly to the producer, ask questions, find out how to make the most from the finest ingredients in your everyday cooking or maybe for a special occasion. Each producer will be in attendance selling whatever you will be tasting – so a great opportunity to do your food festival shopping all under one roof!

A perfect pop up foodie event with a twist on your usual food festival, complete with beautiful views out over the historic waterways of Kelham Island – a beautiful setting, fabulous food and a breath of island air.

Tickets for each event are very affordable and are available to purchase from the CHEF:FIELD site. Family tickets available

All events will be hosted at The Chimney House, 4 Kelham Island, Sheffield.

A Note to Producers

If you are a master producer, chef, maker or grower and you need an audience – we would love to hear from you sally@cheffieldfestival.com

Producers will be invited to join us free of charge. We may ask for a contribution towards a charity instead of a charge.

Join series 1 and get fabulous coverage on our website and your own A-Z listing within the CHEF:FIELD site as well as a full brand profile on the CHEF:FIELD blog. You’ll also be included on The Chimney House blog.

We’re loving teaming up with the best brands in the UK… and we’re enjoying our season of ‘Pop ups’ - Our Pop Up Dining Hall naturally has been king of the castle since we opened – but with the advent of Christmas and a little present sniper snapping at our heels we figured we should help everyone out by supplying on tap presents.

How?? Oh wonderous problem solver…is caught hanging in the air…

CHEF:FIELD A 48hr Food Festival for Food Lovers

Tuesday, May 11th, 2010

CHEF: FIELD a 48 hour food festival for food lovers

Showcasing the finest food brands from around the UK. Our 2 tone festival explores the relationship between what comes out of the field and what happens after the harvest.

We invite you to leap through the FIELD festival experiencing exquisite tastes, flavours and textures celebrating food in its purest form fresh from the earth.

Then we ask you to succumb to the delights of CHEF as the ingredients straight from our land and sea are introduced to cooking styles, method and innovation to create an inspirational and educational festival for food lovers everywhere.

A bustling 2 day programme of cookery schools, demonstrations, lectures, masterclasses by The School of Artisan Food (‘Such Brilliance..an idea that will change the food culture’ Sheila Dillon BBC Radio 4 Food programme) and The Milestone (‘For me it is a rare and lovely find’ Jay Rayner) as well as specialist bars, restaurants, entertainment, cocktail bars from London’s biggest names and dedicated gourmet points for those needing quick fixes of champagne and oysters. A culmination of the first day’s food and cookery classes will be with the festival’s ‘garden’ dinner for guests, sponsors, press and brands.

With the aim of keeping the festival ethos as ethical, responsible sustainable, innovative and educational as possible brands and names taking part will use the festival as a platform that engages with an audience over 48 hours with these principles in mind.

The Marque: 93ft have created an ambigram for the festival. Once rotated Field becomes Chef and Chef, Field. This reflects the symbiotic relationship between the two as the transformation of field produce into chef delights is celebrated.

Location: CHEF: FIELD is a merging of the two experiences which also spells (in your mouth) the location of our first event. Exact location will be released soon.

When: Summer 2011

Lunch at The Chimney House by The Urban Deli

Monday, March 15th, 2010

You’ll be hard pushed to find a more urban a deli… purveyors of fine bites to eat and nice sips to drink. They are a member of the Fine Food Guild and they love artisan producers, good husbandry and sustainable farming practices which makes them heroes in our eyes… especially our hungry spy eyes…

Phil (owner of the UD) has been in to The Chimney House… (he’s a big fan) went away (back to the UD) and has cooked up delightful menus that can be eaten at lunchtime.

We’re thinking picnics and packed lunches. Nice things that you really want to eat – stuff that’s fresh as a daisy (but not actually a daisy – they are a bit sour) I’m also a big fan of the idea that you order a packed lunch – so it’s exactly what you want (no butter, easy on the mayo, no onion, thinly sliced avocado, nice ham (with no jelly bits on, but thick and juicy), on the right colour bread, with the right sort of seeds on top and wrapped up so 1. No one else has breathed on it or maybe poked it with a finger and 2. It’s nice and fresh and crunchy and hasn’t gone soft and a bit soggy.

In your packed lunch you get nice cake, drinks and fruit and crisps. Just like your mum used to make you… but better (no peanut butter and tomato) – because Phil is a supreme perfectionist. That’s why we like him. And he’s very happy and he doesn’t run away when i start jumping up and down talking about fridge fulls and name stickers for sandwiches.
