Menu Week Beginning October 18th - The rush of service

Honestly, I don't have too much to say this time....we had a very very busy week last week and I think I am still recovering. It is a credit to our wonderful staff who have not only set a standard that we are all very proud of, but also strive very hard to maintain those standards even when we are packed.

One of the things hospitality people often speak about is the 'rush of service', I have worked in catering for over 20 years and last week and the week before we had the 'rush', every day, all day. At 41 years old, that is bit hard to keep up with. But what a feeling!

A good thing we have great coffee and food to keep us going.
