James “Jocky” Petrie

Jose Pizarro

Alyn Williams

Glynn Purnell

Shaun Searley

Dean Arbel, Managing Director at The Bread Factory, said, “Our vision at the bread factory is to make good bread available to everybody. We have been inspired by the work of the team at Action Against Hunger, and are thrilled to have bakery at the core of this event where we can make a difference and help support this hugely important cause.” Alongside the baking competition, an auction and raffle will be held in order to raise money for Action Against Hunger, by selling money-can’t-buy prizes. The event, which is sponsored by Taittinger champagne, will be offering guests a champagne reception and live music. Dan Doherty, executive chef at Duck and Waffle, said, “The success of EatPlayLove back in 2013 inspired us to do it again, this time adding a different element to help make this a two-tiered fundraising event with the amazing Bread Factory. I've worked with ACF for a few years now and wanted to do something unique to raise more funds inspired by my Myanmar cycle in September.” The event will be held at Beast restaurant, Mayfair, Sunday, November 8 from 1-6pm.
