Saturday April 25th, from 5.00pm
At the White Hart Hotel and Restaurant our chefs are passionate about using the very finest local ingredients. The South West and, in particular Dartmoor, is renowned for its many wonderful artisan producers and suppliers: From Dartmoor-reared livestock and locally grown fruit and vegetables to crafted cheeses, ice creams and drinks.
Our special Dartmoor Food & Drink Evening will bring together some of the very best of these producers for you to come and meet. They will be on hand to offer ideas and advice, as well as serving up tasty samples for you to try.
At The White Hart we are committed to using local ingredients and supporting local producers wherever possible. So, come along and see for yourself the passion and hard work that makes Dartmoor such a special place for great food and drink.
