Julia Huf , Project Manager said : “ Taste Liverpool . Drink Bordeaux aims to be a catalyst for growth and development for our restaurateurs and local food producers , contributing to Liverpool ’ s post pandemic recovery in its first year and highlighting Liverpool as a welcoming , internationalist and culturally diverse city with a Hospitality sector that embodies this spirit .
“ The Festival ’ s unique proposition is to set Liverpool as the stage of a rich and immersive city-wide dinner out experience by driving people into the restaurants . As someone that worked in Hospitality for the last 5 years , I am really looking forward to using my passion and experience to deliver a world-class festival aimed at showcasing the venues that makes Liverpool such an exciting city to live and visit .”
Bill Addy , Chief Executive of Liverpool BID said : “ The creativity , passion and determination you will find in the professional kitchens of Liverpool are comparable to what you ’ d find in an artist studio . As Liverpool city centre has changed and evolved the independent restaurants , cafes and bars reflect the city ’ s rich diversity . That you can eat in Lebanon one night , pop to Persia the next , cross the road to India the following evening and then stop off for an Italian- Scottish blend for lunch reflects Liverpool ’ s blossoming food scene and , most importantly , the ability of food lovers to bring their culture to the plates of the city .
" This festival will celebrate an industry made up of people who love food and drink , and it is the perfect time to do it , after such a torrid two years . The food and drink industry is so central to Liverpool ’ s culture and local economy this is the time for it to shine ”.
