Flowering Teas

By The Tea Makers of London You may not have heard of it before, you may have experienced it on your travels to Asia or it may be your favourite tea discovery to date. Whatever your relationship to flowering tea, it is the latest must-have in any tea lover’s collection. Most fitting, the history of flowering tea is mired in mystery. It is unknown when the first pot of flowering tea was brewed. One thing is certain though - it is a tea like no other.

This tea is the epitome of self-indulgence.

It is a true treat for all the sense and appeals to those who love adventure and magic. Wonderfully aromatic, bright to the palate and stunning to observe, flowering teas recall their natural spring blooming, and, just as in nature, there is wide range of flowers and colours to enjoy.

As you unwrap the bulb, it is immediately apparent that a lot of delicate work has gone into its creation. Each individual bulb is carefully hand rolled. A sense of the outmost respect engulfs you as you hold the little ball of tea in your hand. You can feel the craftsmanship, the art, the culture and the history in your palm. You instinctively want to treat it with as much love and care as its creators.

As you pour hot water - 90° is recommended - the magic does not happen immediately. Staying true to its playful nature, the little bulb carefully

6 PAGE News

unwraps itself - not revealing too much at first. It builds the suspension until, in one sudden and exciting move, it lets go of the flower inside which travels upwards in your tea pot like a soaring bird.

Rose bud and marigold is a particularly charming blend of tones, offsetting deep yellow and soft pink; lilies are most delightful in their structure and variety of tone; roselle is one for the romantics, offering a powerful and passionate red; and osmanthus is sunset gold and orange.

Once fully bloomed, the tea is ready to enjoy. But before doing so, it is worth taking an extra moment to take in the complete, eye-pleasing structure. What was initially little more than a ball of leafy green is now a stunningly assembled basket of flower and tea, evidently the work of a highly skilled tea artisan.

Children and adults alike can enjoy the mysterious magic of this tea. At The Tea

Makers of London, we are dedicated to bringing you an altogether perfect tea experience. Therefore, we ensure that our flowering teas are not just a treat for the eyes but for the taste buds as well.

Wrapped using the finest silver needle green tea, our flowering teas have beautiful flavours of green and Jasmine tea.

None of this beautiful craftsmanship would mean anything without the right teaware to enjoy it in. A traditional teapot serves for the vast majority of loose-leaf green teas, but for a flowering tea, a glass teapot really is a must.

Flowering teas and their associated teaware make for fantastic gifts, wonderful centrepieces and great tea.

Perfect for visiting guests, and a lovely way to unwind after a busy day.

For the best quality flowering tea, steep at no more than 90°C, using spring or filtered water. Enjoy!

THE BHA CATERING GUIDE TO GOOD HYGIENE PRACTICE LAUNCHED Over 150 food and hygiene safety experts attended the launch of the long-awaited new industry guide to good hygiene practice in the catering industry on Monday, July 11.

The Industry Guide to Good Hygiene Practice: Catering 2016, which is recognised by the Food Standards Agency, Food Standards Scotland, and assured by the BHA’s Primary Authority, Cornwall Council, will help businesses serve food that’s safe to eat.

Ufi Ibrahim, the Chief Executive of the British Hospitality Association opened the official launch event at the RAF Club saying: “Businesses need consistency, constancy and clarity and this guide will provide all three ‘Cs’.”

FSA Chief Executive, Catherine Brown, who gave the keynote speech at the prestigious event has welcomed the publication of the BHA’s Catering Industry Guide and said it is “a major update to the guidance – written by the industry for the industry.”

Last updated in 1995, this guide has now been re-written by the British Hospitality Association’s Food Experts Group with valuable input from Environmental Health Practitioners and other stakeholders.

Ms Brown continued, “the guide is clear, easy to use, and based on the advice of BHA’s food safety experts. It’s vital that food businesses have systems in place to keep their customers safe, and this guide will provide caterers with practical advice on how to comply with their responsibilities under food hygiene legislation.”

Leading food safety experts and representatives from the hospitality industry also had a change to quiz the authors about the guide.

has lauched a unique interactive app containing the guide with search by topics (avaible on iOS and Android for £11.99 per user) - details on how to buy a copy of the guide can be found below.

Professor Lisa Ackerley, Chartered Environmental Health Practitioner and food expert for the BHA said: “This longawaited Guide provides an essential standard for food safety to help food businesses understand what is required of them, and will help drive improved consistency of enforcement and third party inspections in the catering industry.

Finally we have a level playing field for all.”

The guide was also welcomed by the Food Standards Scotland Chief Executive, Geoff Ogle, who said the new Catering Industry Guide is “a userfriendly tool to support businesses across the catering sector with practical advice on hygiene compliance.”

Jenny Morris, Head of The Institute of Food Safety Integrity and Protection remarked that the guide will be “invaluable” to both the catering industry and enforcement officers as it “gives advice on what compliance with the law looks like. I would recommend that every catering business gets a copy and makes sure that they are following its advice in day to day operations.”

She adedd: “The guide is expected to be used extensively by local authorities and it may also prove extremely useful for any business that wants to improve its food hygiene rating score.”

Robert Kitchen, Chairman of the BHA Industry Guide Working Group said: “It has been important to make sure that the new guide is as good as the old one and ready for the next generation.”

Speaking at the event Darryl Thomson, Head of Safety, Mitchells & Butlers said: “The Catering Guide provides food businesses with much needed clarity on best practice. It dispells common kitchen myths as well as being a useful benchmark of legal compliance.”

As well as the easy to use 70-page, A4 guide (unit price £16 exc.VAT), the guide is available as an online document (£10 exc. VAT per licence) and the BHA

Clarke, Shevchenko and Zola applaud Starwood hospitality

Celebrities & Vip’s Praise Starwood Resorts In Sardinia Following Costa Smeralda Invitational

Starwood Resorts took centre stage over the weekend in Sardinia as four of their finest hotels hosted VIP’s and a number of celebrities from the world of sport and entertainment, all in town for the Costa Smeralda Invitational.

Guests of the Invitational stayed across four of Starwood’s leading resorts: Hotel Pitrizza, Hotel Romazzino, Cala di Volpe and Cervo Hotel. The resorts are all conveniently located near the stunning Pevero Golf Club, the setting for the second Costa Smeralda Invitational (25th June), hosted this year by European Ryder Cup captain Darren Clarke.

Clarke stayed in Hotel Pitrizza and was quick to sing the resort’s praises: “What a fantastic location this is with superb hospitality to match” – a statement echoed by Ukrainian top goal scorer Andriy Shevchenko, who said: “The Pitrizza is beautiful, my family were very comfortable staying there.”

Starwood’s Hotel Romazzino was the location for Costa Smeralda Invitational’s welcome dinner and the base for Strictly Come Dancing Stars James and Ola Jordan, who were taken aback by the resort. “What a place this is, so luxurious, beautiful food, great company and a whole lot of fun!” said James.

Chelsea legend and eventual men’s celebrity winner Gianfranco Zola was equally delighted by his accommodation for the weekend, Hotel Cala di Volpe: “The resort is stunning, I love coming back to this part of the world as it is such a beautiful place,” said the former Chelsea FC player.

Hotel Cala di Volpe also provided the setting for the Costa Smeralda Invitational Gala Dinner, which included a live auction for the event’s Road to Awareness charity in aid of UNICEF, and culminated in a spectacular firework display that brought the event to a close.

Franco Mulas, Area Manager Costa Smeralda & General Manager Hotel Cala Di Volpe, said: “The second edition of Costa Smeralda Invitational was an amazing event and even better than last year’s tournament.

“This competition is not only a great showcase for our magnificent golf course, hotels and hospitality, it’s most importantly a fantastic opportunity for us to show our support for the Road to Awareness campaign in aid of UNICEF,” added Mulas.

All guests and celebrities – which also included DJ Jamie Theakston, actor James Nesbitt and cricket legend Kapil Dev – were delighted by their accommodation for the weekend, which added to their overall enjoyment of what was another spectacular Costa Smeralda Invitational.

Speaking after the event, tournament Director Jamie Cunningham, CEO of Professional Sports Group, said: “We are delighted with the success of the second Costa Smeralda Invitational. The feedback from Darren Clarke, the celebrities and all the VIPs has been fantastic and we look forward to building on this success in 2017.”

Avenista Table Reservations also provide all-inclusive access to their incredible support team (awards surely coming sometime soon!) who can implement booking strategies and take care of all of the administrative duties involved in managing the software too.

It’s no surprise that Avenista® customers tend to be busy, extremely well-run restaurants who are always looking for that extra bit of efficiency and want it without hefty prices attached. Unlike so many booking systems Avenista® do not operate a Diner portal and so will never attempt to sell tables from competitor restaurants or gazump a restaurant’s Google ranking.

Never heard of Avenista®? Well, perhaps you can be forgiven. With the stampede towards basic, web-based booking systems in recent years many restaurateurs completely overlooked this unassuming UK company, attracted instead by the fanfares of the big booking operators. But one size does not fit all and having experienced high running costs or poor service delivery many restaurateurs are now looking elsewhere and finding Avenista has intelligent, super-easy software with everything they need and more for often a fraction of the cost.

With more than 10 years’ experience delivering Table Reservation software the team at Avenista® know what makes busy restaurants tick and have continuously honed and polished their software to make running a Front of House effortless. These days millions of diners are seated each year using Avenista® systems.

Oddly perhaps, at Avenista® their mission is for their customers to spend the minimum time possible using the booking software, yet still have the software do exactly what the customer needs, enabling them to spend more time in their restaurants on activities where they can really add value.

To achieve this they worked on making Avenista® intelligent and efficient without taking away any of the features that allow restaurants to deliver really personal service to their Diners. And, so keen are they to deliver on the mission they

As Kerry Beswick (Managing Director of Avenista®) says – “We have absolutely no relationship with Diners at all.

Everything we do is focused on the restaurateur. We are all about providing the absolute best tools and services for our customers to help them make the best restaurants.”

With an impressive client roster, awesome features (including a new online payment feature for events and deposits – saving restaurants huge amounts of time, and reducing no-shows), and pricing lower than anything comparable, many restaurateurs are now getting the message and switching to Avenista® saving themselves time, money and headaches.

Mobile Friendly/App Friendly Bookings Marketing & Promotion Tracking Extensive Pre-Payment Features Intelligent Diary With Class-Leading Flexibility Table Management Walk-Ins and Waitlisting SMS Paging FREE Online Bookings Avenista is the must-have tool for busy restaurants still struggling with pen and paper and is also the solution most favoured by restaurants needing an alternative when existing providers prove slow, expensive or ineffective.

The Energy Saving Chargrill That’s We catch up with Chef Nate Brewster from the hottest secret in London town Boyd’s Grill and Wine Bar, part of the 8 Northumberland Avenue hotel complex in London to find out how he’s getting on with his Synergy Grill.

Boyd’s Grill and Wine Bar is probably London’s best kept secret. And it’s a long-standing secret with a lot of history.

As part of a larger complex called Northumberland Avenue built as a 500room grand hotel circa 1882. It traded as a hotel, with a brief interval during the Great War, until 1940, when it was requisitioned by the War Office. It has been occupied by the Crown ever since.

As you arrive, the first thing you notice is the décor.

Jars upon jars of different old fashioned sweets line an entirely copper bar.

There are so many, they’d make Willy Wonka proud. Café style seating surrounds the sweetie counter, luxurious velvet sofas line the walls, bar stools casually surround a cocktail bar and low slung lights create an old fashioned sense of charm. Around the corner there’s even an upmarket dining area with table cloths, neatly folded napkins and silver cutlery – proper grown up dining.

Waitors danced around tempting us with Wagyu beef from Trenchmore’s farm in Sussex and tandoori halloumi cooked on a Synergy Grill and damn it was tasty.

After sampling lots of treats, we caught up with Chef Nate Brewster, a rising star in the culinary world who explained from a professional point of view why he’s a Synergy fan.

For those that aren’t already in the know, the Synergy Grill is a pioneering new chargrills that uses 52% less gas. This gas saving equates to an average of £12,238 every five years in gas costs, reducing the cost per plate and helps cultivate a carbon neutral kitchen. It has no fat tray to clean, saving labour time and creating a safer work environment for staff. These unique benefits have been adopted by top chefs Tom Aikens and the Galvin Brothers and snagged top

prize for innovation at The Commercial Kitchen Show where the judges said they were “Wowed by a Britishmade design that is a true innovation for chargrilling.”

The greatest benefit, however, is the flavour. Synergy Grills get much hotter than the average chargrill.

This heat ‘atomises’ the natural fats that are released during cooking which are misted back into food making it incredibly succulent.

On the way out of the hotel complex we asked the sweetie jar bar tender (we’re sure that’s his official job title) what all the old-fashioned sweets are for. He explained it’s an ice cream bar where they’ll magic anything you want into ice cream with dry ice. Willy Wonka would most definitely be proud.

Gift cards are the ideal early Xmas present for restaurant owners Xmas maybe nearly half a year away but astute independent restaurant owners are already planning for the festive season and compiling their own shopping lists.

One of the best presents they can buy themselves would be a gift card solution to boost revenues and increase customer engagement, writes Niels Nielsen, managing director of EPOS specialists GS Systems.

Traditionally this lucrative market, worth an estimated annual £5bn according to the UK Gift Card & Voucher Association (UKGCVA), has been the exclusive preserve of big multi-national companies. However, this is no longer the case. Independent restaurants and small chains can now retail gift cards cost effectively without a large intimidating capital outlay.

There are wide-ranging benefits for restaurant owners.

Our experience with our clients shows they can anticipate substantial revenue increases as their customers spend above the amount on the card.

They will also enjoy higher margins.

Research reveals one in three of us buy a full-price rather than discounted item when using a gift card.

According to market analysts Mintel, retailers will save an estimated £65m a year in loan interest gift card payments are paid in advance.

20 PAGE EPOS

Remarkably, industry statistics also reveal that that nationally £250m spent on cards is unredeemed, the equivalent of a 6% windfall for retailers.

So how do you take a slice of the lucrative gift card market?

Restaurant owners have a couple of options if they want a solution from us. They can have a gift card scheme as a standalone product or one that operates within an EPOS-based business management solution where automatic reporting tracks gift card transactions and redemptions.

All they need to get started is an internet connection, a tablet or a PC with a connected magnetic card reader and a supply of numbered preprinted blank gift or reward cards with a magnetic strip.

These pre-paid cards, which have unique reference numbers for tracking, are worthless until they are swiped

through the magnetic card reader and a cash value is uploaded.

Even better, the costs involve a small set up charge and monthly fee plus the price of the cards and the marketing of the solution.

Once set up, restaurant owners simply sell gift cards online via an operator’s website and their social media platforms or at the point of sale.

We have found that introducing a gift card programme can increase sales by 30% versus existing paper card solutions while mature programmes can deliver between 3-5% of a total company’s revenue.

That’s plenty of food for thought as you plan for the Xmas season later this year.

Caffe Concerto How 3S POS’s Multisite Management and Bespoke EPOS solutions helped us into becoming a Cafe & Casual Dining empire

Launching into the casual dining deep-end with one location can be challenging enough. Now multiply that with 22 locations and you could have a potential nightmare if not executed right. This clearly was not the case for Caffe Concerto, as the business continues to grow and with the help of 3S POS’s Multisite Management and Bespoke EPOS solutions the company has taken its business to the next level.

The friendly face & Operations Director of the Caffe Concerto Group, Maher Al Hajjar, knows only too well of the obstacles and barriers of growing from a single location to a ‘now’ nationwide café & casual dining empire, all whilst protecting the brand integrity and the quality of the product.

Maher says “There were three main problems we faced whilst expanding. The main barriers as a cafe & restaurant revolved around logistics; Firstly, how do we get 100% fresh produce to our branches and more importantly to our customers in a timely fashion? Secondly, how do our staff manage and produce to order whilst responding to the demand of our ever growing café & restaurant estate? Lastly, how do we manage our staff between branches to reduce cost whilst increasing efficiency? With these three issues, it could be the make or break of a brand.”

“During our early years of expansion it became clear that we needed to centralise our cake & patisserie production and internally distribute our own products to ensure quality and freshness. We worked very closely with 3S POS to ensure their Distribution Management Centre (DC) addressed our growing requirements and they delivered bespoke features unique to our business model that not only allowed each branch to order from the DC, but also monitor the progress of their orders and make amendments accordingly before delivery. The Enterprise Stock Control module allowed our branch managers and chefs to have tight control on their stock levels and costs, whilst the Purchase Order Manager gave them the flexibility to order directly from suppliers offering the best and freshest produce. As an enterprise system, our procurement teams in head office are able to monitor and manage all branch activities to minimise stock costs and wastage at all times.”

“To maximise our front of house operations and sales we needed to ensure we had the right amount of staff with the correct training in each location. The HR & Staff Management tools give us control over staffing budgets, attendance, payroll and training. On a weekly basis, each staff member automatically receives their weekly rota via email. This tool also has a clock in/ clock-out feature, which ensures staff are paid to the exact minute.”

The 3S POS team have tailored their EPOS and Company Management system for Maher and his team; and continue to work together to develop bespoke solutions for them to address their fast growing enterprise business.

Maher says “I’m looking forward to the future with 3S POS as they’ve grown with us from the beginning, and there are exciting times ahead with the new emerging technologies enhancing hospitality operations!”

new Commercia Big name catering equipment buyers, specifiers and designers from many of the UK’s leading hotel chains were out in force at the NEC Birmingham on 7-8 June – checking out the latest new products and services on offer at Commercial Kitchen.

The UK’s first trade show designed to accommodate all of the many vertical sectors served by the commercial kitchen industry, Commercial Kitchen delivered on its promise to be the dedicated event that the dynamic catering equipment market had been waiting for.

Offering its visitors the opportunity to meet up with existing and potential suppliers, to network, discover new products, enjoy expert Keynotes and panel discussions, and keep up with changing market trends, the first edition of Commercial Kitchen attracted 1,723 attendees and has been hailed as a significant and overwhelming success by its organiser, Diversified Communications UK. More importantly, feedback from across the show floor has been full of praise for the launch and the high quality of visitors in attendance; with over one in three visitors citing a corporate spend of over £500k (10% reported over £5million).

Adam Mason, director general of CEDA, the show’s major association partner was full of praise for the show’s launch edition

“Commercial Kitchen proved to be a very rewarding partnership for CEDA in terms of business leads for our Members and Partners. We took enquiries from the end-user market in the UK and also for several international ventures targeting the UK and overseas. The CEDA Design Gallery, featuring the overall winners from our 2016 Grand Prix Awards, was a real hit with many of the visitors. CEDA was proud to be directly involved in the well-received seminars and we are already looking forward to building on our great relationship with the show’s organisers to support the development of an even stronger event in 2017.”

The show’s aisles were buzzing with a ‘who’s who’ of the sector, including representatives from Hilton, Premier Inn, Travelodge, Bourne Leisure (Haven, Butlins and Warner Leisure Hotels), Luxury Family Hotels, Corinthia Hotels, Macdonald Hotels & Resorts and hundreds of quality independents.

Leading contract caterers were also there in force from Compass, Sodexo, WSH (BaxterStorey, Caterlink and Holroyd Howe), and Gather & Gather – plus key buyers from pubs, restaurants, supermarkets, universities, schools, hospitals, care homes and local authorities.

“What makes Commercial Kitchen so unique is that it brings together operators from all types of kitchens, allowing everyone to learn from each other and to see the full spectrum of products available for all commercial kitchens, whatever their

size or need,” says group event director Chris Brazier. “From our speakers and exhibitors to the visitors themselves – the who’s who of the commercial kitchen industry were at the show doing business.

“Big thanks really must go to all our exhibitors and partners who have supported the launch of Commercial Kitchen right from the start. We knew that expectations were going to be high – particularly because there’s been nothing quite like it before. But the way it has been so positively received has been truly amazing.

We now have an exceptional foundation from which to grow and develop over the coming years,” he says.

Looking ahead to 2017, over 50% of the show’s 80 exhibiting companies have already rebooked (many have already requested to increase the size of their stands). In addition, there has been significant interest from a raft of new companies ensuring that exhibition space will be expanded for next year.

Big name seminars The inaugural seminar line-up included celebrity chef Theo Randall, Chris Knights (group executive chef at Young’s and Geronimo Pubs), Paul Dickinson (head of food at Fuller’s Managed Inns), Simon Lee (head of F&B at Staycity Serviced Apartments), Dirk Wissmann (senior equipment manager at Pret A Manger), Peter Woods (exec head chef at The Corinthia London), Myles Bremner (exdirector at School Food Plan and CEO of

al Kitchen show hailed a big success Bremner Consulting), Dominic Burbridge (associate director at The Carbon Trust), Philip Shelley (national chair of the Hospital Caterers Association), Radford Chancellor FCSI (director of Radford Chancellor), and Andrew Seymour and Clare Nicholls (the editors of Foodservice Equipment Journal and Catering Insight respectively).

Innovation Challenge Awards 2016 Designed to promote and celebrate the best new equipment and technology innovations over the last twelve months, the Innovation Challenge Live saw nine finalists (as voted for by visitors to the show on opening day) pitch their ideas to a panel of industry judges on Wednesday 8 June. The panel included Peter Farrell, sales director at C&C Catering Equipment; Philip Shelley, national chairman of The Hospital Caterers Association; and Andrew Seymour, editorial director of Foodservice Equipment Journal.

The Commercial Kitchen Innovation Challenge Award results: Gold • The FRIMA 112L (FRIMA UK) • Gram Superior Plus Refrigeration (Hoshizaki Gram) • Merrychef eikon e2s (Manitowoc Foodservice) • Synergy Grill (Synergy Grill) “FRIMA UK are very pleased to have received the Innovation Challenge Gold Award. It’s great recognition for all the hard work that the team have done and reflects our market leading position as specialists

in multifunctional cooking. We had a great couple of days at Commercial Kitchen and met with many quality customers,” says Graham Kille, MD of FRIMA UK. “The atmosphere and networking during the two days at Commercial Kitchen was of the highest order and the show enticed many from both near and far within the UK. We found it extremely pro-active, professional and allowed us to reach out to people that otherwise may not have attended, if it wasn’t for the dedicated focus the show portrayed. Being recognised as a Gold Award winner for an innovative product was a delight and on behalf of all of us at Hoshizaki Gram we will continue developing the very best products for our clients. In summary for this wonderful exhibition: see you next year, we will be there,” says Paul Anderson FIH, commercial director at Hoshizaki Gram.

“We’re delighted that the Merrychef eikon e2s has been awarded Gold in the Innovation Challenge. It is fantastic that Manitowoc Foodservice is being recognised in the industry, as leaders in cooking technology innovation.

Commercial Kitchen was a great opportunity for Manitowoc Foodservice and has definitely been a success for the team.

The show not only provided an excellent quality of visitors throughout both days but was perfect for giving them further insight into our products, as well as gaining further brand recognition within the industry,” Sarena Harwood, Manitowoc Foodservice.

It’s been hard getting a new product off the ground. The thing that always kept us going is that it’s a really great product that has wonderful benefits for its users.

We showed the Synergy Grill to some big names, like Theo Randall and TGI Friday’s, which goes to show the calibre of buyers there.

Smeg Comes to Broadway and Fits the Bill When looking for a reliable, tried and tested warewashing solution with a small footprint for a longstanding café client Andy Koumis from All Catering Services approached Smeg Foodservice.

“I needed a warewasher to fit into Vural’s The Broadway Café, Southgate and they are a longstanding customer who I have been doing business with for 13 years.

“Vural and I designed the cafés interior and we installed the new kitchen. The challenge was the site’s shape and size which narrows from front to back from seven metres to under five metres, and obviously my client wanted to keep as much space for seating as possible.

“I knew of Smeg’s reputation for high quality and offering a range of sizes and different specification warewashers to match the needs of different operators. Talking with Martin Dawson at Smeg the CWC520D with an external softener was the ideal solution. The machine’s combination of a small footprint, competitive price and range of features and programmes fitted the bill perfectly and Vural were also happy to be buying the well respected brand,” comments Andy. www.smegfoodservice.com/uk/products/dishwashers

HMP STYAL, THE CLINK www.theclinkcharity.org The Clink is a charity which establishes a commercial kitchen and restaurant either within a prison or a separate nearby building, whereby selected inmates are professionally trained with the goal of acquiring educational qualifications. This is clearly demonstrated at this de-consecrated 100 year old chapel at HMP Styal, the first female institution with a Clink facility.

The chapel required a large amount of planning to ensure the open plan kitchen, a Clink signature feature further developed

by Sterling into a state of the art facility, and associated services within a limited floor space including a mezzanine with staff facilities could be accommodated without harming the historic decorative features and adherence to all current legislation.

Supervising the installation meant attendance at a number of site meetings throughout the fit-out period to completion to ensure that The Clink received the expected standard of installation which Sterling had set including a thorough defects inspection of the project.
