Inaugural Bristol Bites Food Quiz

Inaugural Bristol Bites Food Quiz at The Star & Dove: Monday, September 10th

Think you know your stuff when it comes to the world of food and drink? Want to put your wits against other foodie teams from around Bristol? If so, join us on the evening of Monday, September 10th for the first ever Bristol Bites Food Quiz at The Star & Dove in Totterdown.

Having been taken over in mid-2011 by chefs Tim Denny, Leigh Pascoe and Matt Duggan, The Star & Dove has been making waves with its menu based on old English dishes and a highly successful evening as part of the Eat Drink Bristol Fashion event recently hosted by The Pony & Trap and The Story in tipis on Queen Square.

The quiz – the first public Bristol Bites event to take place – will start at 8pm on September 10th, at a cost of £1.50 per person. Teams (up to a maximum of four people) will be challenged by five different food and drink-themed rounds, including anagrams, an identification round and more. One of the rounds will see The Star and Dove preparing an appetiser, the ingredients of which will need to be guessed by participants for extra points.

The three top teams will be awarded vouchers to spend on food at The Star and Dove within a week of the quiz: £20 for the winning team, £10 for second place and £5 for the third placed team.

Says Emily Knight of Bristol Bites, “I’m thrilled to be hosting our first ever food quiz at The Star and Dove – it’s a great venue with amazing food and we’re looking forward to some friendly competition on the night!”

Tim Denny of The Star and Dove adds, “What a truly tremendous idea this is. A food and drink quiz in Bristol is to my mind very long overdue. Emily has a great layout to the quiz and we are predicting great things.”

The quiz takes place at The Star & Dove from 8pm on Monday, September 10th – and will be on the first Monday of the month from then on. Pre-booking is advisable – to register your team, call the venue on 0117 933 2892.
