Somerfield Cookery Theatre at the Royal Highland Show 2008

Somerfield attended the Royal Highland Show this year with its successful cookery theatre. We had an even bigger presence than last year on the busiest main road at the showground.

Over the four days we hosted 30 cookery demonstrations by local award-winning chefs using Somerfield locally produced food; gave away 8,000 Somerfield goody bags and over 50,000 samples of Somerfield Scottish food and drink including locally reared beef, smoked salmon, sausages, cheese, whisky, cakes and local grown fruit and vegetables.

Guest chefs included:

Tom Lewis - Head Chef at award-winning Monachyle Mhor Hotel, Scottish Chef's Hotel Chef of the Year 2007 and star of BBC2's Great British Menu in 2006 http://www.monachylemhor.com/

Jacqueline O'Donnell runs The Sisters restaurants in Glasgow with her sister Pauline - Jacqueline has cooked alongside Shirley Spears, Nick Nairn, Jean-Christophe Novelli and Lady Clare Macdonald and runs two very successful restaurants in Glasgow. Working with local suppliers to bring a taste of the 'real' Scotland to the heart of Glasgow, The Sisters are popular for creative home cooking that appeals to all ages.

Somerfield's charity of the year Macmillan Cancer Support promoted the Somerfield Big Picnic - to find out more and sign up visit Big Picnic
