Suffolk goes tasty with new website

Visitors to Suffolk are being encouraged to explore and experience local food and drink through a new website, Tastysuffolk.org.uk. The Tasty Suffolk website provides a one stop shop for food lovers bringing together farm shops, farmers’ markets and other outlets providing local food, together with food and drink producers whose details are presented in a creative and informative way.

As well as the comprehensive listings, it also includes news items, details of food and drink events, recipes and highlights issues relating to food, farming and the environment.

Farmers’ markets and farm shops have become very much part of the leisure experience in their own right. The Elveden Estate’s Food Hall and café/restaurant complex, near Brandon is a great example where food produced on the estate can be eaten in the restaurants or bought in the shop, along with other local produce.

Suffolk is fast becoming a food destination renowned for the quality, variety and abundance of its local produce, both speciality and mainstream. The second phase of the Tasty Suffolk website will be the development of an eating out section.

For visitors planning to stay overnight, accommodation suggestions and details of places to visit can be found on Choosesuffolk.com.
