next one
Our catering meeting earlier this week was a complete and utter success. Whilst many of our caterers showcased their new found recipes and ingredient combinations, many other caterers went into the technicalities of utilising various other uses for our machines. Topped off with a very topical and informative trip to the local public house, the meeting was yet another in the line of successful gatherings where our operatives, agents and professional caterers all get together, and all come together in order to make instant improvements, so that our customers can get the very best, all of the time.

Ch Ch Ch Ch Changes!
The summer has returned to us in a fashion that is truly befitting to its grandeur in general. That the sun does exist as a huge ball of burning gas that seems to rest in a perpetual setting within the vacuum of space, befits it as the sole provider of life on earth. Indeed, where many can see that the suns existence revolves around the notion of a destructive explosion in continual occurrence, it must also be noted that without the sun, we would cease to live. This week the caterers have been busy reviewing their respective notes and client information in order to see where improvements within the…

The weekend is fast approaching and some of our caterers are out tackling the varied yet highly enjoyable tasks centred on, in and around mid week catering. These events, though not as frequent in their occurrences as those which are found upon the weekends, are still great for all involved and are also often very relaxed. In the opposite corner as regards many of our catered events which occur throughout the mid week time frames are our much celebrated corporate hospitality events. Just yesterday, we had the pleasure of catering for a large motor company headquarters in the south of England. The aim of the event was to celebrate…

Whilst talking to more and more of our catering teams who were out servicing the hog and spit roasting needs of people all over the country, it has become apparent that more has happened than I had previously expected. Many of our fully qualified and experienced chefs and technicians had the pleasure of showcasing their various spit and hog roasting specialities at a huge variety and host of food shows across the land. At one of these shows, one of our teams experienced a great medieval spectacle, which allowed for a huge amount of fun to be had both on behalf of the many hundreds of tourists and guests,…

student food!
Operating within and through one of the nations most reputable caterers can sometimes facilitate the most peculiar of experiences. Just this weekend past, many of us were attending a seminar on food dispersal held by one of the local universities. The event itself was quite a sensation, and was very insightful to see how the youth of the catering field were approaching new aspects of service. Many of the students found themselves highly enraptured by our catering experiences, and in turn we loved to indulge their inquisitive minds as regards their understanding of the bespoke and tailored catering world. What is always interesting to note is how…

weather is clever
Well we are just so taken with the amount of culinary enthusiasm we have been encountering on our vast and varied catering assignments. Whilst our services have broadened in the same manner of growth which we emulate year on year within our enterprises, our customers seem to be truly appreciative of all the finer points of our catered services. For example, our new seasonings were picked up on straight away by one of our rugby club clients, who regularly allow us to cater at their annual committee meeting, or AGM. This afternoon has seen much work being completed on our hog and spit roasting machines, as we…

On the whole, the weekend was filled with numerous amounts of wondrous splendour. As…
