From Cardiff to California and Brussels to Boston, preparations are under way to toast St David’s Day around the globe with special events featuring Welsh food and drink.
World renowned sea salt producers Halen Môn are to enjoy a few more minutes of fame when they appear on BBC TV show Ready Steady Cook next month (March 4th).
Some of Carmarthenshire’s best known food and drink producers are to feature in a special gourmet evening (February 20th) at one of West Wales’s top restaurants, Y Polyn.
