So, push out some vegan food ideas around in January and kick the year off well.

Seafood Week
October will once again see Seafood week become part of the food industry calendar. This import culinary week is one where anyone in the food or catering industry can get involved and promote the UK fisheries and the fish they bring to our plates. The event is often very hands-on and anyone in the catering industry is invited to take part. Fish is such and important part of a healthy diet and this week encourages people to explore fish and is a prime opportunity to add some fish to any menu.
There are many culinary events that take place across the UK and around the world, these are just a handful, and they may help you with some ideas for a hugely successful 2019.
