Good for you!

A new food concept, ‘The Alternative Gourmet Night’ is coming to the Liverpool Food Lover Festival (3-16 September) with an imaginative food evening aimed at inspiring people to eat more healthily.

The brainchild of Nutritional Therapist Helen Turner, the event, which takes place on Wednesday 12 September, will provide food lovers with a very special four course meal, plus lots of advice on health and nutrition.

The meal will be designed without any salt, refined sugar, trans fats, wheat or dairy ingredients. Tasty for anyone with food intolerances and with the added benefit of being especially good for you.

Taking place at Delifonseca on Stanley Street, the menu has been developed in conjunction with Candice Fonseca, its owner, and her head chef, Martin Cooper.

Helen Turner says: “Many foods can contribute to ill health, and on this evening we’re hoping to highlight how eating the right foods can actually be beneficial to our health and vitality”

The meal will cost £28, and will start at 7.30pm with an introduction by Helen.

Cathy Varley of North West Fine Food, which is organising the Liverpool Food Lovers Festival, said: “We have chocolate fantasy evenings, the tallest sandwich attempt and a special dinner by London Carriage Works and now an Alternative Gourmet Evening. The festival is proving to cater for all types of tastes.”
