ME, MY CAMERA & THE FLASH

 ……….A ship inside a bottle cannot sink or collect dust; it is nice to look at and floats on glass. No one is small enough to board it. It doesn’t know where it’s heading. The wind outside won’t blow its sails. It has no sails, only a slip, and a dress. So are photos, they stay the same as time goes by. I felt like having fun so I grabbed my camera and flashed away. These are some of the dishes that we do and I am not the best photographer you have ever met but I tried.

                                                    

                                                         Our soups :)

.......I have never liked the thought of having the same thing over and over so as a rule in our kitchen, we change things almost daily. There are many reasons as to why i choose this method, one of them being to keep things interesting in the cafe, for costumers who come there daily. There is so much available everyday from farmers, fresh vegetables and it would be a shame not to take advantage of this lovely goodies. Another reason that i cannot ignore is the fact that i have trainee chefs/staff and i have to constantly keep pushing the bar daily for motivation, awareness and pass on knowledge. learning something everyday is awesome and it leaves you with a feeling of achievement and in turn very empowering. Most of my staff are young and full of energy, they demand and absolve what they learn quickly. So we soak beans, roast bones to make stocks for our soups or slow roast vegetables, either pan roasted or oven. Blend them or leave them whole. Fuse new with tradition to create something different. Which ever way i totally encourage it daily "to be creative". If you happen to stop by, be adventurous and go healthy for a moment, try a soup for a change. Soups that we make include,,,,, Tomato and rosemary, butternut squash with coconut and lime, bean soup with coriander, nduma soup,  roast carrot and ginger, potato and spinach or sometimes we will do it with managu when there is plenty going around. Chicken soup or vegetable soup and more all served with toasted bread and you can always butter your toast just ask (at no extra cost).
