On Sunday 29 - Monday 30 September from 10.30am until 6pm, foodies can look forward to a new food festival with chef demonstrations from MasterChef the Professionals winner Gary Maclean as well as head chef of Restaurant Andrew Fairlie at Gleneagles, Stephen McLaughlin.
Visitors can indulge in food and drink stalls including a champagne bar, live music, whisky tastings and food masterclasses for the kids.
Paul Fraser, Ingliston Country Club & Hotel Owner, said: “FoodFest@Ingliston will give people a taster of the best food and drink Scotland has to offer.
"Not only will visitors have the opportunity to see two of the nation’s top chefs showcasing their culinary skills, they can indulge in our food & drink stalls, live music, whisky tastings and gin mixology masterclasses.”
And the foodie fun doesn’t end there as Stephen McLaughlin and Gary Maclean will also be on hand to help discover Scotland’s next Mini Master Chef.
Gary Maclean said: "I am thrilled to be attending Ingliston Country Club & Hotel's first ever FoodFest@Ingliston event, you will be able to catch me on the Monday demonstrating some of my favourite dishes live on stage.
