Getting it Right

Hot food on display for instant service is the Achilles heel for so many cafe operations.  Left out for lunch service (above 63 degrees C or max two hours if under) items can often look unappealing.  Benugo get it right with these individual pies plus the cooling quiche at their British Museum Gallery Cafe.

Museum Display Case of Cheese

Pizza East has found a great use for those dusty, dreary museum display cases of old.  Quirky, fun, original - Founder Nick Jones has always wanted to break the rules.

Seen at Tower 42 reception - fun, timely and even the colours are spot on for Wimbledon

Fresh Fruit Display

Fruit provides colour and that healthy glow to your food display (even if sales will be low) but baskets are generally so unimaginative.  Couture has brought some creative thinking to the fruit display at their Canteen at Pinewood Studios as befits a world class film studio location.
