Our values

Authenticity

Our recipes and cooking methods are true to the French dishes we know and love.

Quality

It is very important to us that our dine-in dishes deliver fabulous flavours time and again for our customers. As such our range is hand cooked in small batches by classically trained chefs using the finest ingredients.

Healthy

We don’t use any unnecessary additives or preservatives in our recipes and our dishes are fast frozen to lock in flavour and goodness.

Sustainable

We use local suppliers for fresh fruit and vegetables, meat and dairy. A lot of our producers are based within 20 miles of our kitchen, keeping food miles to a minimum. Our local butcher, Peter from Larkhall Butchers www.larkhallbutchers.co.uk is a Master of his trade and supplies us with exceptional quality grass fed and free range lamb, beef and pork from surrounding farms.

Our lamb comes from Jamie’s Farm, a charity that combines sustainable farming with supporting young teenagers to re-engage with family and school. It is a unique organisation and one that we are proud to be associated with. www.jamiesfarm.org

We want to keep our carbon footprint to a minimum and as such our delivery packaging is completely natural, from Woolcool https://www.woolcool.com/, pioneers of the sustainable packaging revolution. Our trays are made from 95% recycled materials. We continue to look at all operations of our business to improve our environmental impact.
