TrustedPlaces Food & Wine Bloggers Meetup

TrustedPlaces Food & Wine Bloggers Meetup

We had our inaugural food & wine blogger meetup last night and what a great night we had! A posse of food & wine bloggers gathered at Cantaloupe and ate, drank and some of us got very merry :) Cantaloupe provided some lovely Brazilian fare and some fine drinks which we very much enjoyed, and we polished it all off with some fantastic cupcakes from Fair Cake which created a bit of a frenzy with some of our bloggers (and me!). Beautiful moist cupcakes with yummy frosting, I want more!

So, let’s introduce you to the people that were there:

Andrew from Spittoon
Jeanne (aka cooksister) from Cooksister
Simon from Dos Hermanos
Krista from Londonelicious
Rob (aka thirstforwine) from the Wine Conversation
Jonathan (aka browners) from Around Britain with a Paunch
Douglas from Intoxicating Prose
Chris (aka chrisp) from Cheese and Biscuits
Denise from the Wine Sleuth
Helen (aka FoodStories) from Food Stories
Lizzie (aka hollowlegs) from Hollow Legs
Bron from Feast with Bron
Annemarie from Ambrosia & Nectar
Julia (aka JuliaParsons) from A Slice of Cherry Pie
Laura (aka kittieskitchen) from Kittens in the Kitchen
Fred & Ginger (aka dinnerdiary) from Dinner Diary
Dan & Erica from Bibendum

We’ve got lots of photos on flickr that tell the story of the night. It was so much fun and so lovely to meet everyone. My only regret is the sambucca. At the time, it was a great idea!

Thanks to the team at Cantaloupe, it wouldn’t have happened or gone as smoothly without them - 5 stars!

    […] can imagine my delight when 3 boxes of gorgeous cupcakes were delivered for our TrustedPlaces food & wine bloggers meetup last week. I had to turn my back to them for I could not trust myself. They smelled so incredibly […]
