Rarebit Fortnight

To mark St. David’s Day, Welsh chefs are coming together for the inaugural Rarebit Fortnight (21 February–7 March) to celebrate an iconic national dish and raise funds for charity.

Restaurants and cafes in south Wales will feature Welsh rarebit on their menus in both classic and inventive forms, with a donation from the sale of each dish going directly to Cegin y Bobl (The People’s Kitchen)’s grassroots community cooking workshops.

Participating businesses include Cardiff’s Asador 44, Milkwood, Ogof and Hard Lines, The Shed in Swansea, The Felin Fach Griffin in Brecon, and Pitchfork and Provisions in Llandeilo. Dishes included in the campaign range from Asador 44’s Leek and Galmesan cheese rarebit gratin and chorizo crumb to Ogof’s smoked pollack rarebit tart to the Hare & Hounds Bakery’s chestnut mushroom & Welsh rarebit toastie to The Shed’s Welsh onion soup with Welsh rarebit croûte.
