 You’ve got your favourites as well right? You know – those items that are a must-have for your cupboard (kitchen cupboard of course, we all know that your clothes’ cupboards are stocked with chef whites!). Think of these essentials like you would that swanky little black number, for example, that you pull out on a special night when you feel like REALLY kicking things up a notch...

 If you've stumbled across this blog post, chances are that you either a) love us (the one we hope for!) or b) are looking to get into the pop-up/supperclub game yourself. Well you've come to the right people; this post is all about how we go about finding a space to cook our food for people without smashing up the innocent little piggybank.
 We ran this "gift guide" last year, and with most of us now doing our shopping online (and invariably leaving it late, or maybe that's just me!?) we've got 5 quick ideas for your food-obsessed friend. Mind you, these aren't just Christmas gifts, think of them as 'proof of patience' when it comes to their hobby, because let's face it, you probably put up with alot...
 Despite running around London for the past week getting ready for our final 2 supperclubs/popups of the year, we managed to squeeze in a quick Christmas recipe idea to have some fun with this weekend to help you get ahead before the big day using a bit of gadgetry to create some lovely, personalised treats for Christmas day…
Time to use the crowd to your advantage
Kickstarter, Crowdcube and Crowdfunder are just a few of the BIG names in the crowd-funding game, but it is interesting how they've evolved from being a platform for technology start-ups to pretty much covering every type of start-up out there. Recently there have been some extremely successful crowd-funded food ideas and concepts, so let's have a look at some of them...
 We are just over the 2 month mark for our residency at the newly opened Platform 1 on Lordship Lane, East Dulwich and as Chef's we've been lucky enough to enjoy a great space to test out some great ideas as we continue to develop and grow as a team. Here's an update on how things have been going so far (make sure you read all the way to the end as we've got a special treat for readers of this blog!)...

 R, Chloe and Saz. We are looking like we're soon to open in Dulwich, Lordship Lane to be precise; and if you haven't been following our blog posts closely, let me be the one to tell you now that we will be cooking in our little restaurant residency for you guys very soon!
 Part of starting a new business is really knowing where you stand relative to your competition and really getting into the nitty gritty of what kind of food is already part of the heartbeat of the local community; so we decided to check out the other new kid on the block (Yama Momo) to see what we're up against...
 The whole idea of Smoke & Salt started just over a year ago with little more than 2 people and a silly idea. Before “The First Smoke” ever existed we did need to make sure the efforts would not be in vain, so when a small group of compatriots came over for dinner one night in May 2014, they were technically our first “guests” and this is what they ate....
