Following his popular appearance in 2015, the award winning Chef and restaurateur Jean-Christophe Novelli will return to the Channel Island of Guernsey for the second Guernsey International Food Festival, taking place from 23 September to 2 October 2016.

Events are taking place daily throughout the festival but Jean-Christophe will be on the island on Friday 23 September and Saturday 24 September to kick off the ten day festival with a gala dinner and live demonstration.

On 23 September, Jean Christophe will join forces with Guernsey Chef Tony Leck at his restaurant, The Pavilion, (www.thepavilion.co.gg) to create a special menu to be served at a gala dinner that evening.  

The following day, fans of the charismatic French Chef can stroll along to the capital of St. Peter Port and the atmospheric seafront to watch Jean-Christophe's skills live in action in a demonstration on 24 September.

Details of both events will be revealed in due course. For more information on the Guernsey International Food Festival, please visit www.visitguernsey.com/food-festival. Foodies are advised to follow @GuernseyFood on Twitter for updates.
