Truly Scrumptious - A Food Festival Podcast

Hello and welcome to our Truly Scrumptious Podcast.

Where we talk Food Festivals, Festival Food, Foodie Friends and Friends of the Festival.

In each episode we will chat to one of our many friends - our stage chefs and bakers, food producers, festival team and other people involved in the festival world. It’s a huge world, it’s a hardworking one and great fun too. Although a tad stressful at times!

My name is Lotte Duncan a food writer, presenter and eater! I have been involved in many areas of the food industry for over forty years.

I’ve owned and run a cookery school and cafe. I’ve cooked on television a fair bit, hosted stages at many live shows, interviewed more chefs and bakers than I can remember and written a best selling cook book. Over the last 8 years I’ve spent my spring and summers judging food for the Great Taste Awards. And for the last 10 years I’ve been involved in Food Festivals.

Meet Jon Hacket! Jon comes from a background of advertising and film making. I met him when he was my camera man on a shoot. (Lucky chap)

He’s in charge of all things logistics - from fencing to marquees, infrastructure to loos and power supply to bins! He describes himself as the director of sanitation - he’s much more than that of course, and to me he’s my anchor! A calming influence when I have my inevitable melt down exactly 10 days before each festival. It’s what I do!

Together we will bring our festivals to life on this podcast, chat to our many friends, find out back stage gossip, tips and tricks from the chefs and bakers and just how we pull it all together to create a truly scrumptious foodie festival weekend!
