In 2018, the subject of unnecessary disposable waste hit the headlines and instigated an unrivalled step change in our behaviours as consumers and across businesses.

Long have corporations been following a trend where waste management and recycling has been a prompted action; helping us choose sustainable over non-recyclable materials but few consumers truly understood that their daily caffeine fix was in fact one of the worst culprits with their cunning [waxed] interiors and extra sleeves to stop us burning our hands – or those tops, so nifty and convenient on our way to the office.

How very exciting, TAF Catering Consultancy gets a mention in the latest hot-to-trot second edition of magazine-about-town Curious Magazine.

Have you read the latest instalment from Custard Publishing? An interesting one for those chefs thinking of actually going for it this year, i.e. setting up their own restaurants: Does a restaurant after your name… help or hinder?

Hard to believe only 2 weeks ago, TAF sponsored our 1st charity event for The Clink Charity. What a fantastic showcase of amazing food & service delivered by the bright shinning grads from Westminster Kingsway College, THE CLINK RESTAURANT COMPANY LIMITED, Centrepoint and the team at the Royal Lancaster London – cooking and serving 350 guests. Hosted by Matt Tebbutt of Saturday Kitchen, we helped raise £35,000 on the night. A very proud collaboration!

Keep up-to-date with news of The Clink Charity, sign up to receive their newsletter & visit them for lunch at Brixton, High Down, Cardiff and Styal Restaurants (or their café in Manchester). Book your table here.

Miss the Foodservice Show? Snow put you off? Well, have no fear… Fairclough was there, so see if I can inspire you with what inspired me. 5 highlights included:

(1) amazing award-winning culinary talent, cakes & fine dining – made me so proud of our talent strewn industry, (2) finger-on-the-pulse trend talks, (3) tickling taste-bud chef demos, (4) networking with some industry peeps and (5) innovative little products you know will be everywhere because they’ll catch on soon. Enjoy!

It’s hard to believe this day 5 weeks ago, we were getting ready to go live with TAF Catering Consultancy so we’re technically only just celebrating being one month old!

What an amazing and incredible ride it’s been so far.

Already in the middle of our first catering tender for one of the world’s largest law firms, we’ve completed an agile workspace feasibility proposal, for a business centre about to take on the heavyweights (with a local approach) plus completed two benchmark reports (one assessing artisan London coffee shops in a vibrant, beard-twirling tattoo-boasting epicentre of one of London’s trendiest hubs, the other assessing pubs in a beautiful suburban town, in the Greater London area).
