PASTA GAROFALO Launches videos by MasterChef finalist Sara Danesin Medio!

Following the great success of Salone del Gusto Garofalo Pasta has launched a series of videos with MasterChef finalist, Sara Danesin Medio.

Sara was a special guest at the show, demonstrating her own recipes on the Garofalo stand and acting as the UK roving reporter at this biannual show in Turin.

Garofalo pasta was once again a main sponsor of Salone Del Gusto, continuing the premium pasta Company's close collaboration with Slow Food and food experts and bloggers from around the world. 

The films featuring Sara Danesin will be shown on the Company's website, YouTube and on their international Facebook pages. They show the rich menu of activities and special events offered by Garofalo to all visitors to the famous Turin show.

Special events included the launch of the new Pasta Garofalo Gluten-free line, due to be launched in the UK this year.

Sara says: "It was a great honour to be asked to visit Salone Del Gusto on behalf of Garofalo and great fun interviewing the people behind the brand, meeting the many visitors, talking to all the Chefs and food bloggers and tasting the delicious food. For an Italian food lover it was heaven, I hope to inspire people to visit the next show with my films which will give a little taste of my time at Salone".

The series of videos have now been launched on the Garofalo YouTube channel!

The first Surrey Hills food festival is launched in Leatherhead!

Leatherhead is to host a food festival in April - the first in the Surrey Hills.

The two day event will take over the town centre and involve all local restaurants who will offer taster menus to the thousands of visitors expected to flock to Leatherhead on April 5^th and 6^th.

Along with a food market along the high street, hosted by local producers of fine food and drink, there will be celebrity chef book signings, a range of Masterclasses with food experts like Italian chef and author Valentina Harris and a series of demonstrations at Leatherhead Theatre called 'Chefs in Show'.

The event is designed to showcase the plethora of products created locally and regionally to food lovers and to reveal the restaurants' unique recipes and menus to a wider audience.

The Leatherhead Food Festival is free for all the family with tickets on sale for the Masterclasses and the Chefs on Show from a link on the website www.leatherheadfoodfestival.com. There are discounts for groups and children and corporate packages for local companies wanting to treat staff and clients. A VIP lounge will be available at the theatre on both days.

The festival is the idea of William Prosser who runs a successful Global events company in Leatherhead. A food lover himself he wants to create an event to help boost business in the town and show the quality and versatility of food and drink in the area.

He says: "I wanted to showcase our wonderful restaurants and local food and drink to a wider audience whilst at the same time providing a wonderful day out for the whole family. I am very proud of our Surrey food credentials and hope we can boost business in the town by bringing everyone together for a wonderful show.

I am used to putting on events but this one is personal and I am working with everyone in the town to make sure the Leatherhead Food Festival is both memorable and desirable for many years to come."
