10 years of obsession

Earlier this month, Michelin-starred hotel-restaurant, Northcote in Lancashire celebrated 10 years of Obsession, its annual festival showcasing fine food and wine.

The gastronomic celebration featured some of the UK and Europe's most talented chefs, who each cooked an exclusive "one night only" menu.

Chef-proprietor Nigel Haworth and his business partner Craig Bancroft introduced a superb line-up of participating chefs, including Tom Kitchin, Phil Howard, Angela Hartnett, Andrew Fairlie and Nathan Outlaw as well as Theo Randall, Ken Hom and Jacob Jan Boerma from Restaurant De Leest in the Netherlands.

Matthew Fort, food editor at The Guardian, and Tom Parker Bowles, columnist and television presenter, also took part in the festival.
