Speaking with “a very full belly”, the founder and director of the group, Alex Nicholson-Evans, said: “The reaction from the last few years has been really fantastic. It’s not just one or two venues, it’s a whole food scene.
“I think Birmingham is a fantastic place to eat and visit and I hope it can showcase the breadth of cuisines and foods we have and show we’re absolutely still up for business.”
The restaurants taking part can be found in different spots across the city, from Harborne and Edgbaston to the Chinese Quarter and Brindley Place, as well as many venues across the city centre.
A variety of international cuisines will also be on offer: Chinese, Indian, Italian and French but also Argentinian, Vietnamese, Nepalese and Thai.
Two Michelin star restaurants are also taking part in the festival, Adam’s and Simpsons.
