It’s the day we certainly have been waiting for! We have again partnered with McIntosh of Strathmore to bring back our Mac and Cheese Festival as part of the Southside Fringe. After a year out, McIntosh Pastaval is back! The coverage we’ve received so far has been incredible so we know that others must love macaroni as much as we do! The two previous winners will be taking part this year, along with Buddy’s and two new competitors hoping to win the coveted McIntosh Pastaval trophy and we need the publics’ help to pick the best mac and cheese in the Southside this year.
The day will begin with participants picking up their Mac and Cheese appreciation pack from the McIntosh Pastaval base at The Butterfly and The Pig South on Kilmarnock Road in Shawlands. Then, using their provided map, attendees visit the participating venues tasting some delicious mac and cheese. Scorecards are provided so that notes can be made on your feelings on the mac and cheese. Return the scorecards at the end of your journey through the McIntosh Pastaval to enter a prize draw for delights such as a meal for two at Buddy’s, McIntosh hamper and much more!
The winning venue will be presented with a suitably cheesy trophy to proudly display that they have been awarded the accolade of the best mac and cheese of McIntosh Pastaval 2017. Previous years’ winners were The Butterfly and The Pig South (2015) and The Waverley Tea Rooms (2014).
Tickets are £10 per person and are available to buy via www.foodieexplorers.co.uk from 1st May 2017.
