Spicing things up

It's curry week at Filling the Gap N15 courtesy of our première guest chef, Malcolm.  We will be providing the much needed warmth that the British summer has, once again, failed to.

There will, of course, be a meat and a vegetarian option, both equally delicious and enticing you to scoop them up with a home-made poppadom, yummy.  We will be cooling things down with key lime pie or zingy fresh fruit salad for dessert. Don't worry, we have kept the spiciness elegant and child-friendly.  Malcolm is a dad of three and assures us that his recipe is a family favourite.

Hurry to join us, as there are only two sessions left before our summer "break".  I do not use these quotation marks lightly, which is a pet hate of mine, by the way ("Get well soon" just seems rude!)  Although we won't be opening again until October (gasp, sob!) our time will be spent chasing up the funding applications, getting the kitchen up to scratch and most excitingly planning our opening event for Saturday October 6th.  Funding applications have been sent out and prayers have been sent up, but come hell or high water, we will be open from October. It would just be great to do so with some funding under our belts.
October seems like a long time, but all these stinky, adminy gremlins must be conquered so we can get back to the real business we enjoy; serving food to our community.  With some fun in the sun (hopefully, rain, rain go away) and a couple of sandcastles with the kids thrown in, the autumn will soon come around.  Who knows, it might even we warm enough to eat outside by then!
