Dear take home meals customers,
We have reached the end of a 6 year era!

It’s been a hard decision to make but after 6 years of take home meal production that started with covid induced lock downs, I have made the decision to end this part of our business offering.

As you all know, we have regularly had to stop production at different times due to the high load of work which is the main part of the business - event catering.
I feel pretty fortunate that this side of the business continues to grow and as a result it’s often a struggle to find enough hours in the week for it all.

The event catering side of the business is demanding and is needing my full attention.
This is not to say we can’t help you out with special orders - we have a ‘self serve’ menu that we have been supplying customers with over the past years - this provides a range of dishes from starters through to desserts that are all pre-prepared for you in the event you need extra help with a dinner or party you’re hosting at home. Please feel welcome to reach out!

We are also still looking at a special Christmas menu to help out for the busy season - let me know if this could be of interest?

I would like to sincerely thank you all for being great, enthusiastic customers over the years andI’m sure we will still see a lot of you at different events around town!

Thanks again,
Emma
