summer

ANETA JARZMIK General Manager, Hard Rock Cafe Manchester

When it comes to our most popular summer dishes, it’s probably the Grilled Salmon Noodle Bowl as a refreshing option, and a personal favourite too. It’s a perfect combination of healthy and delicious, making it the ideal choice for summer; it went down really well in 2022.

For drinks to cool customers down on a hot day, our Blackberry Sparkling Sangria and Passionfruit Mai Tai are great – a fruity and refreshing twist to traditional cocktails. If you have a sweet tooth and want something other than just an ice cream, our homemade Hot Fudge Brownie is sure to satisfy your cravings –warm chocolate brownie topped with vanilla bean ice cream, hot fudge, chocolate sprinkles, fresh whipped cream, and a cherry. Naughty but nice.

Summer dining is all about fresh food, lighter meals, and creating delicious dishes that utilise all those seasonal fruits and vegetables that we miss in the colder weather. A great opportunity for caterers to offer the perfect summer dish is by making delicious barbecued Mediterranean fish kebabs!

Featuring Young’s MSC Certified Wild Alaska Pollock and Salmon pieces marinated in lemon juice, paprika, garlic and chilli flakes before being skewered with peppers, courgettes and tomatoes and finally popping on the BBQ. These kebabs are not only delicious but are simple to create and perfect for the summer dining experience.
