Only a few hours left until all teams have to present their dish to the judges, so the pressure is on!!! TASTY 2017 was an amazing experience and we are so greatful that we were given the opportunity to be apart of it all 🌟 We would like to thank everyone for their support throughout the project, including the credit union for sponsoring this project, our local suppliers Conor Daly from 'Active Irish Honey', James Jordan from 'Jordan's Atlantic Sea Salt', Gerard Noone from 'Noone's Poultry' and Andrew Deane from 'Donegal Creameries'. They helped us realise how much local Donegal produce is actually available!! We would also like to thank the public who liked and shared our page as you helped us gain more support with every like and share!! Last but not least we would like to give a huge thanks to Susan, Rana and the Chandpur Family as they have supported and helped us so much throughout the entire project as well as our School Mentor Kyle Clarke! We cannot wait for the winners be revealed tonight and we are hopeful one of them will be us 🎉🏆🍯🥜🍗🌟
