Monday 2nd October 2017
- October is here which means the Wine bar pops up this Friday…Great wines (and other drinks including a good selection of soft drinks) and a fab Italian menu.
- Where do you stand on eating veal? If you are a meat eater and feel unhappy eating veal, I recommend you read this article from Compassion in world farming.
If you fancy cooking some veal, why not try the classic Italian dish – Osso Bucco which uses veal shin. Here is a recipe which uses beef- all instructions the same – just cook for a little less time. - I feel uncomfortable mentioning the C or X word, but just a quick prompt that if you are thinking of organising a family / friends / club or work “do”, and think Cornucopia may be the perfect venue, do get in touch, as my diary is beginning to fill up….

- Hanborough squash (a la Market Garden), coconut and lemon grass soup @ £2.75 for 450ml portion (order fresh or frozen) (dairy, wheat and gluten free)
