Food Heroes Celebrate St Andrews Day At The Loch Fyne Oyster Bar & Restaurant



The iconic Loch Fyne Oyster Bar & Restaurant, at the head of Loch Fyne in Scotland, is promising visitors a Fyne time on 30 November as food heroes from across Scotland come together for a St Andrews Day Feast.

Visitors will be able to meet some of Scotland's best food and drink producers face to face at a special producers' market and then raise a toast to Scotland's national day with a four course meal specially created by award-winning chef, Roy Brett.

Producers like Hebridean Sea Salt will come from as far afield as the Outer Hebrides, while the artisan bakery Mhor Bread will travel from the nearby Trossachs.  Diverse produce including seaweed from Mara Seaweed will be available to taste and buy.  Those visiting the market will be welcomed by a traditional Scottish piper.

The St Andrews Day menu is available between 1 and 7pm and will cost £40 per person.  Celebrating the best of Scottish produce, it will comprise:
Loch Fyne Salmon Selection with Soda Bread
Loch Fyne Smoked Haddock Chowder
Roast Loin of Churchill Venison with Crumpets & Red Cabbage
Little Chocolate Pot with Vanilla Cream
Coffee & Shortbread
"We want to turn St Andrews Day into a great Scottish food and drink celebration. St Andrew was a fisherman so Loch Fyne is the perfect place to celebrate this special day with our own sustainable oysters, mussels and salmon taken from the sea loch on our doorstep" said chef Roy Brett, who leads the food team at Loch Fyne.

The newly refurbished The Loch Fyne Oyster Bar & Restaurant has long been considered a pioneer of the Scottish food and drink story.  The company started farming oysters in Loch Fyne in the 1970s and selling direct to the public in a nearby lay-by.  The business grew over the years in line with its reputation and it is now synonymous with local, sustainable and above all, delicious produce.


The St Andrews Day feast can be booked by calling 01499 600482 or find out more information on www.lochfyne.com.

A lot is spoken about Yorkshire pudding but is in not such a very difficult thing to do. All it is, is a batter mix that is put in a mould with some oil so that it soufflés up as it bakes. As long as you follow a few simple rules then you should have a perfect pudding every time. To make the batter you will need. 125g/8oz plain flour 300ml/¾ pint milk 2 eggs Pinch of salt Some vegetable oil. Now a lot of propel say that you need a strong bread flour to make a god batter for Yorkshire puddings but I have found that over time it does not really matter. But if you are going to use a strong flour let it rest for a little longer to allow the glutens to start working and get soaked up in the liquid . Take you flour and sift it in to a bowel to make sure that you do not get any lumps. Then make a well in the middle and crack your eggs in to that. Now taking a whisk start to work the eggs in to the flour. It will start to from a thick paste. If you think that it is getting to hard to work then
