Fun,

food and festivities are all coming to Dingles Fairground Heritage Centre this

weekend (Sunday 29th and Monday 30th May) for the first

ever 'Eat the Devon Way' event.

 

Try

and buy local produce at one of the huge variety of stalls and see what

wonderful feasts you can cook up with cookery demonstrations for the experts. 

Top local chefs Jason Hornbuckle, Jacques Marchal, John Hooker, Stuart Downie,

Steve Pidgeon, Steve Barringer, James Parkinson, Andrew Honey, Phillip Burgess,

and Ross Tregido will all be appearing in the cookery theatre during the course

of the two day event with a packed cookery programme including interactive

sessions, and a cookery challenge.

 

With

Dingles host to the oldest working ride in the country, the largest Dodgem track

in the country, the kitsch splendour of the 1940's Ghost Train, the thrill of

the 1930's Super Chariot Racer, and traditional games and side shows, there are

plenty of fun fairground rides for the whole family to enjoy

too.
