Lotte's Kitchen

Fun ceramic tea stand at Lotte's Kitchen cafe in Chinnor, Oxon - tucked behind a small parade of shops with postcode OX39 4PF in case you try to find it.

Lotte Duncan really cares about her food, has written cookbooks and, with her neighbour and shop manager Sue Tiplady, makes a dynamite chocolate brownie and pot of tea.

They have just the right idea of keeping the fit-out cost down and the distinctive charm factor up - assorted quality china,  this pink drinks fridge plus a pink Smeg fridge - all second-hand or to put it another way, recycled.
