The Mayor of Causeway Coast and Glens Borough Council, Alderman Maura Hickey, was on hand to sample the theatre’s culinary delights.
She said: “Causeway Speciality Market has really gone from strength to strength. With such a diverse range of products on offer it’s an ideal showcase for the best of what our region has to offer.
“It was fantastic to see the produce cooked up in front of us and I was delighted to pick up some tips from some of the region’s best chefs. Causeway Coast and Glens Restaurant Week celebrates the range and quality of our restaurants and there’s no doubt that our local producers play a vital role in this.”
