Fruit plate
We give you food for thought
Simple, consistent, delicious and uncomplicated.
That’s our recipe for great food. But we also know that variety is the spice of life. It keeps everything – and everybody – excited.
Pick your own Ploughmans
Think of Ploughmans. Then think again. That’s what our team did for this big ad agency. With great ingredients such as succulent home made chutney, a mouthwatering selection of cheeses and crispy English apples, we brought an exhilarating new dimension to ‘picking your own Ploughmans’.
Going retro
Remember when flair wore flares and the Government was worried? Our ‘Retro Days’ combine first class food with a little (if slightly dodgy) nostalgia.
Can you remember Arctic Rolls – complete with that enticing sponge-coated ice cream? Or the unique taste of Spam Fritters? Or perhaps there’s still a misty corner of your memory devoted to debating the relative merits of Fruit Salads or Sherbert Dabs with old schoolfriends.
With ‘Retro Days’ you can revisit some old favourites, and maybe discover some that you’ve never encountered before. All good, clean – and delicious – fun.
Who gives a tuck?
Hmmmm. Getting a little risqué here. The success of our ‘Tuck Shop Days’ even shocked us. But it seems Billy Bunter and his Greyfriars cronies still have a following out there. Yikes and Yaroo!
Here are just a few examples of our creative, versatile approach in action.
Focus on...
Cauliflowers are at their best in Spring and Autumn and are particularly useful in the famine month of March when nothing else seems to be ready for harvest.
Food facts...
30 years ago soup enthusiasts had a fairly limited choice. Tomato, chicken, vegetable, oxtail and, er, that was about it. Nowadays the choice is almost infinite….from cheese and broccoli to lentil and bean.
But, hang on to your ladle, because it seems as though we’ve all come full circle. Our ancestors apparently used to enjoy some pretty exotic flavours too. The earliest archaeological evidence points to soup being consumed way back in 6000 BC.
What was it made from?
Get this.
It was made, seemingly, from…………hippopotamus.
And we think we’re being pretty adventurous with our flavours now?
