A Little Something For The 'TOP DRAW'

Competition Winners Get Tasty Treat

Posted on: November 16 2009

Pictured above are the winners of the Glen-Yr-Afon House Hotel's Usk Show Competitions, presented on Sunday 15th November 2009 by Pam Watkins - Functions Co-ordinator at the hotel.

Two competitions were run from our stall at the very successful Usk show in September this year; the first was the 'Create a pudding recipe' competition. Head Chef Julie Carey set a challenge to those budding chefs to create a pudding recipe for a pudding that could be made and used here at the hotel.

The winner - Bethan Roberts (middle) from Abergavenny received her prize of £20.00 WH Smith voucher together with an opportunity to work with Julie here at the Glen-Yr-Afon House Hotel & Clarkes Restaurant in the new year. She will recreate her pudding which will be offered to guests from our A La Carte menu.

The second competition had two age groups; both of which were asked to colour in a picture of the Glen-Yr-Afon House Hotel. In the 8 -10 year old age group, the winner was Connor Watts from Newport and in the up to 8 years old the winner was Megan Roberts from Abergavenny. Both received a voucher for sunday luncheon here at Glen-Yr-Afon together with art materials from WH Smith.

As a special treat they all had their caricatures drawn by Picassso Griffiths who was perhaps checking out his future competition?
