You can certainly tell when autumn is approaching when you work in this industry. As soon as the sunshine season starts receding, your inbox suddenly becomes inundated with invites and offers to attend all sorts of intriguing events and launches.
Just take this issue as an example, as we have previews of not one but two huge shows that are looming on the horizon. The H2O team will be out in force at both lunch! (see page 43) and UCFF (page 44), so keep an eye out for us if you are in attendance and do say hi.
Then comes the main event – the eighth incarnation of our annual StrEATfood Awards! As you can see from the page opposite, we are about to take on the tough task of paring the long (long) list of entries down to the final 16 who will be competing at Big Penny Social in north London on 8th October.
The good news is that, once selected, you could be there to cheer them all on. Go to streatfoodawards.co.uk now if you happen to be a fan of supporting the industry, supping free booze and, of course, scoffing free street food!
