We are back!
Thank you for bearing with us whilst our staff recharged their batteries.
This week we have a bumper harvest from and we are so excited to share our menu with you.
The curry this week is using black chick peas which have more fibre, and iron plus they have a low GI so great for blood sugar management.
The salad this week is basically the allotment on a plate!
So fresh and so clean!
