What is Taste Isle of Ma n? Taste Isle of Man is an independently assessed quality assurance scheme which recognises establishments providing consistently high quality dining. The Taste initiative is part of a national quality assessment scheme benchmarked throughout the British Isles. As such, participating venues are assessed on the full dining experience offered to you, the customer. While the emphasis is firmly on the quality of food, the assessors also look out for warmth of welcome, service and hospitality, cleanliness and a commitment to the use of local produce. The scheme incorporates many different styles of dining experience and this guide contains five different categories, ‘Restaurants’, ‘Cafés & Tearooms’, ‘Pubs & Bars’, ‘Takeaways’ and ‘Street Food’ – so no matter what you are looking for, there will be a great option for you.
03
Awards Through Taste Isle of Man, eateries are awarded ‘quality assured’ or ‘highest quality assured’ accolades in recognition of the first-rate dining experiences that they offer visitors. Taste Highest Quality Assured Taste Quality Assured Harvest Look out for the special plaques which identify members of the Harvest Isle of Man Scheme. Establishments will be accredited members of the Taste quality assurance scheme and will also have requested to be assessed against the Harvest Isle of Man criteria because
the use of local produce is a valued part of their ethos. You can expect great service, food, drink and surroundings with fresh local produce. The criteria validates the use of produce which has been caught, reared, brewed or processed in the Isle of Man and the assessors also check that staff can explain the use of local produce to customers. More information on the Harvest Isle of Man scheme can be found in the Isle of Man Guide to Food and Drink, along with full details of local food and drink producers. The guide is available to download from www.gov.im/foodanddrink

The Black Dog Oven is a ramshackle family run operation which pops up at public events and festivals around the Island (and is also available for private hire). It comprises simply of a woodfired oven in a horse box. From humble beginning though, wondrous Manx pizzas are created! The Black Dog Oven focuses on quality local ingredients and freshness, to guarantee consistently great flavour.
D
Pizzas are rolled, stretched and topped to order in front of your eyes, and cooked in as little as 90 seconds in the Black Dog, resulting in a thin and very crispy pizza which is rich and smokey in taste. Unique topping combinations such as local chorizo and Peel queenies have won them a devout following, none of whom seem to mind if their pizza is not perfectly round (!). Its not posh, but by crikey its tasty.
