New 'Early Bird' Menu

This week - Chicken Tagine

This weekends special: Chermoula Chicken Tagine proved very popular last night when the 

North Shore Community Centre came for their Christmas break-up party.

I too, had this for dinner last night. Served with pilaf and topped with chermoula and slivered almonds, I was instantly transported back to my holiday in Morocco many years ago. This dish is full of the authentic flavours of Morocco. If you love tagines I suggest you to try this now!

Yum!

New cakes!

With so many christmas parties and the school holidays upon us, our dispay cabinet 

is brimming full of goodies.
