SLOW food is back on the menu in Ludlow with a celebration of Spanish food.

The Slow Food Ludlow Marches group is thrilled to be working once again with chef Damien McNamara of Chapter 66 at Ludlow Castle on the forthcoming Slow Food Sunday event at Ludlow Castle. It will be an opportunity to experience some of the group’s favourite food destinations through the pleasure of food.

On November 3, they will be bringing Spanish dishes to Ludlow. All the ingredients will be sourced carefully from local small scale food producers, highlighting the groups commitment to promoting good, clean and fair approach to food and drink.

Co-chair of the group Tish Dockerty said: "We’ve worked together with the chef to choose a three fixed-course menu (vegetarian menu available on request). There’s something for everyone to enjoy, including family or friends, young and old, in the resplendent setting of Ludlow Castle's Beacon Room.

Slow Food Ludlow Marches is part of an international members movement, events are open to all and the group is ‘not for profit’ and run by volunteers. The Slow Food principal values small-scale farming and food production methods as opposed to mass production, as well as fair pay for the farmer and not forgetting the importance of flavour.

Will Macken, co-chair of the group, said: "Ludlow and the Marches is blessed with fantastic quality meat that is still reared traditionally on a relatively small scale and it’s all available locally from our excellent butchers, farm shops and farmers’ markets."
