When the world gives you lemons?
January 21, 2021
Earlier this week I put it out there that we had a stash of lemons needing to go to a good home for re-purposing into Lemon Curd.
Low & behold if by magic here is said Lemon Curd which was lovingly made by super talented Tricia Graham from @peckhampreserves who gave us her time to make this limited edition treat. It’s now for sale in Romeo Jones, with the proceeds from every jar going to @mindcharity . A happy ending for the lemons who are basking in their new found glory of Lock Down Luscious Lemon Curd.
Then when you thought it could not get any lovelier… just had a visit from @kerenza1215 who dropped these divine little tarts in for our tea treat. She made the tarts with lemon curd that Tricia from @peckhampreserves made from our lemon mountain! Full circle lemony generosity and kindness.
We are delighted to say that our surplus lemons have raised over £200 for MIND. A big “Thank You” to all those involved.
Meet our chef – Tom Rawlings
October 27, 2020
Meet Tom; Tom ‘Rory’ Rawlings joined the team this summer to look after our kitchen and everything that goes in and out of it. He was looking for a different type of challenge after working in West End restaurants like The Ivy & Hawksmoor, now says he has come to really appreciate the community feeling in Dulwich Village.
Tom was born in York 33 years ago but grew up in Shropshire where he did his chef training, then went to work in Australia for over 4 years building on his culinary meat & seafood skills. Tom supports Arsenal and has started studying brewing (where much field work for the latter is required…). He’s a fan of new food trends and really embracing the shift to a more plant based offering.
Join us for lunch, say hello to Tom & tell your friends about his fab food!
Julia Burnett exhibits at Romeo Jones
September 2, 2020
We are delighted to have Julia Burnett’s latest collection of land and skyscapes back in Romeo Jones. Julia’s extensive career in making and exhibiting art as well as teaching has resulted in her being one of the most loved & recognised local artists.
Julia Burnett’s paintings are rooted in the tradition of landscape painting but it is the sense of place that interests her in my work. The paintings are inspired by moments in time and how she holds them in her memory.
