Carnival time at Culture & Chips
Put the two of them together in the form of a food carnival, Culture & Chips, based in the Spiegeltent, erected in the city centre for the duration and you have a most excellent extended weekend’s (May 29-June 2) entertainment. There’ll be plenty of the old pop’n’roll, naturally, including Jack L and the Jerry Fish Electric Sideshow, but there’s plenty of the edible variety to boot, including chef Paul Williams of the excellent Canteen restaurant cooking a splendid feast, The Menu’s much-favoured Susan Boyle, fresh from a stint at last weekend’s Litfest, brings her excellent Wine Goose Chase performance piece on the history of Ireland and wine and then there is the World Chip Championships, as fine a notion for a cooking competition as has been conceived in many a long year. All in all, a splendid weekend in the making and, yes, The Menu will be having chips with everything! www.cultureandchips.com
