Taste The Northwest have tapped into the hit Channel 4 show and developed an innovative new Derry Girls Food Tour. The tour aims to explore the inspiration behind writer Lisa McGee’s sitcom by visiting the sights and sounds of the Northwest, with some tasty treats along the way.
Focusing on showcasing Derry’s international flavours, from the bars, restaurants and cafes, the tour delves into the history and experiences that Derry Girls has referenced so brilliantly.
We are right in the middle of the cream horn versus cream finger debate, and it’s a bit of craic locally. Doherty’s Bakery produces fresh cream horns. Thanks to Derry Girls, there’s a bit of history, culture, and heritage added to the cream horn now that it’s part of pop culture. On the ‘The Derry Girls Food Tour’, we want fans of the famous show to taste the food memories from Derry Girls and enjoy the craic of whipping up a cream horn ’.
We have recreated a unique take on the food memories shared in the ‘Derry Girls’ show with the best food experiences in the North West. The Derry Girls Food tour is available from Taste the North West from July 16th.
