Inspiration to Reality
In the
Victorian era one would trust Cook to know the best butchers, fishmongers,
greengrocers, spice merchants, and so on; she would judge the quality of the
produce on offer and if it didn’t meet her exacting standards, then watch out.
We work in the same way. Our ingredients are selected, not merely delivered.
If our preferred supplier can’t provide goods that satisfy our exacting
requirements we go elsewhere. Think of Croxford's as your own ‘Mrs Bridges’ and team,
your own personal cook and serving staff.
Our food is
special (see some of our clients comments below). Not so visually stunning that
you are afraid to spoil it; nor so expensive that you have to convince yourself
that it must be worth it. It’s just very, very good. Really.
We only use
foods in season and will not tolerate the use of so-called fresh
vegetables that have flown half way around the world before arriving on your
plate. We make everything ourselves from basic ingredients with the result
that, once tasted, our food is never forgotten. Try it – satisfaction
guaranteed.

I often get
asked how we manage to run everything so smoothly, and still keep smiling. The
answer is all in control – control of the food, the cooking, the situation, the
venue and even, in some cases, the clients! We leave nothing to chance and plan
every last detail. Pre-planning is our speciality and events are run with an
almost military style precision. Our staff smile because they know exactly what
they are doing and what is expected of them. Our clients smile because we
exceed their expectations and satisfy their guests. And back in the kitchen we
all smile because we love what we do – and it shows. |
