Pirate Cafe

Celebrating Catering

Cafe operators everywhere will empathise with The Real Food Cafe's owner Sarah Heward's poetic piece celebrating ten years of business.  It has been printed on staff uniforms and sums up the sheer hard work and hands-on involvement of every successful caterer.  Well done Sarah and the Real Food Cafe in Tyndrum, north of Loch Lomond. @therealfoodcafe

A Scroll sounds so much better

Doughnuts may sound a little too much of an unhealthy treat so I was tempted by a 'Scroll' from Crosstown Doughnuts - a clever way to sell a doughnut!

Having installed your real fire (or high tech, efficient, remote-controlled, wood pellet fire in this case), make sure the fire guard tells a story too - boots off and socks a'drying in the case of the Real Food Cafe, Tyndrum on the walkers' West Highland Way.  @therealfoodcafe

Chee

 Chee is how you pronounce QI which will be what all your customers are demanding from you in the near future.  Wireless Charging at their table.  The latest phones (such as the Samsung 6) have the charging system incorporated but for the rest of us there is a device that allows you to plug in and recharge your phone.
 Chee - Get with it!
