Food
Thank you to the food vendors who served up a delicious 2018 festival!
British Indian Curry is Barry Hodge’s passion. He's been eating it since he was five and making it since he was fifteen, and now shares the delights of British Indian Curry with the good people of Richmond. Over the past 60 years, it has become the #1 take-away food in England and is now regarded as the “national dish”. What makes this style of curry any different from any other curry? It’s hard to say, but much has to do with the fresh ingredients, the exotic spices, the aromatic flavors and of course (if desired), the mouth tingling taste!
Goatocado
Goatocado is a conscious kitchen. They consider it their challenge to source, prepare, and serve food with purpose. As a conscious kitchen, they think beyond the food. They’re conscious of their environmental impact and strive to make daily decisions that contribute to the overall well being of the community. Find the Goatocado truck in the Food Court section of the Festival.
Jus Cukn'
Jus Cukn' excels at serving award-winning hickory- and pecan-smoked BBQ treats such as (but not limited to) pulled pork, jumbo whole wings, beef brisket, and baby-back ribs.
