DINNER COLLECTION Usually selected for more formal occasions or celebrations. Dinner can be served in three or more courses, and courses are often chosen to complement each serving.
Autumn & Winter Dinner Collection 2013 Please choose your own menu by selecting one starter, one main course and one dessert to create your own menu for your function. Please feel free to discuss with us the feasibility of having a choice of dishes at your event. Once you have selected your menu we can price accordingly. Also please choose one vegetarian starter and main course and ensure we are advised of any dietary requirements in advance. If you would like to discuss any particular dish or create a certain cuisine theme, please do not hesitate to get in touch. As a company we believe the menus that we construct should be as unique as our clients. Formulating a menu in collusion with clients from our range of food collections, allows truly original offerings. It allows you to create an extraordinary menu rather than the ordinary!
