Funnily enough Lloyd we were talking about doing some sort of wrap, that sounds delicious!

Libby, I had a look at that site and had to ask what a lot of the items were too, fancy names aren't they! I'd never hear of a bonda or a mezze and I think sometimes people are put off by fancy names. It still annoys me that coffee made with milk is now called "latte" in most places. Rolling Eyes

This will be a cafe with perhaps a monthly restaurant night. The cafe will have proper thick soup (with lumps) and home made rolls (we'll make all our own bread). The usual toasties but with options beside cheese, such as humous, bean pate, pesto and the like.
There'll be a daily "special and chilli will be a regular as it's one of Greenlady's favourites, any more suggestions most welcome.  Very Happy

OOOOOooooooooohhhhhhh how exciting for you all!!!! Personally I eat anything (apart from tripe {{YUK}}), so not really the person to ask....but I do like cheese and it does give veggies a wonderful flavour. Karl reckons the nut cutlet type food is gross....but he likes the textured veggie stuff that makes him think that he's eating meat Smile

a mezze is like antipasti, a plate full of nibbly type things all together...sometimes it is as much as eating the main course although it is supposed to be an appetizer

i groan in dispair when we go to have coffee some places as there are so many choices .....i want a cup of coffee, i don't need a full meal......just give me a decent cup of good coffee....

can you tell this is a bit of a bug bear with me   Smile

Good coffee is a must, I agree Nanny, just plain ordinary coffee!

I cooked us a mezze the other night, and wondered about doing a post on it but couldn't be bothered. It was a large selection of hot cooked food, together with some chilled foods both raw and cooked, plus some olives, garlic bread cubes, rice, cous cous, etc etc.

I couldn't decide whether it was antipasti, mezze, entrees, hors - doevres, or what to call it, so gave up in the end. It was just a plate of food!! Rolling Eyes  Rolling Eyes  Rolling Eyes  Rolling Eyes  Rolling Eyes


Onion garlic and potato gratin tonight. Quick to prepare but then five hours in the slow cooker................

Today I made a butternut squash and cranberry roast, yummy.!
Todays soup was spiced lentil and spinach, cheap to make, and very tasty.
