Food Passion is a eating out and food shopping guide for Swansea and the surrounding areas (Gower, Mumbles, Llanelli).

It exists in web and printed form, and I’ve recently finished the graphic design for 2009’s edition. Its the second time I’ve designed the printed guide, which usually takes the form of a 48 page booklet.

I recommend picking one up, they’re very useful and an interesting read, plus this year they have vouchers in the back which can be exchanged for discounts and free gifts at various restaurants around Swansea. Look out for them across the city.
