Last week we hosted a survey called ‘Since re-opening’, we wanted to know about your experience since re-opening your doors to the public. It is important that we understand how we can support you in the current climate.
Well, the results are in! Based on your answers we have gathered the best recipes to help you deliver what your customers want and how to get in touch with us for any other queries.
Burgers were the most popular requested choice with over half of all respondents (53%) saying it was the most asked for dish, which is why these classic burger melts are a must have in your kitchen. They are quick and easy to make but add a great twist to a clearly popular menu option:

Since re-opening what new or emerging food cuisine types/trends are being asked for most?
The pre-lockdown mega trend around veganism seems to be continuing with almost two thirds of you (63%) saying it was the most popular emerging cuisine in your business with more and more people choosing to experiment with their diets. With this in mind, we have gathered a selection of delicious vegan recipes to inspire your menu:
