An upcoming event aimed at making wine-tasting less ‘intimidating, snobby and bewildering’ will be happening later this month. But rather than a la carte food-pairings, the wines will be instead paired with CRISPS.
The tasting will happen at Open Kitchen and Bar, at the People’s History Museum on Left Bank in Spinningfields on September 22. On the night, there will be five wines paired with ‘five snack foods’.
While which crisps will be involved has not yet been confirmed, the blurb for the event mentions the possibility of ‘Wotsits, Frazzles, and some Monster Munch’. It’s also pointed out that there will be some additional classic snacks to ‘remind us we’re northern’.
The tasting is being run by wine expert Nathan Fiske from C&O wines, and will feature ‘a range of small, independent, family-run or cooperative owned vineyards, and wineries that have organic or minimal intervention methods at their core’.
Open Kitchen, which sits on the ground floor of the People's History Museum on the edge of Spinningfields, is a cafe and bar focused on 'sustainable, ethical and delicious' food and drink. The cafe works with a wide range of food businesses to source edible food that would otherwise go to waste.
The event costs £27.54 and are available to purchase on Eventbrite.
