My favourite way to eat at any meal opportunity is with friends and family, accompanied by food. A table laden with picky bits, snacks, nibbles to graze lazily through…. A SPREAD. Oh boy have I found just that!!
Made to order, delivered to your door, gorgeous, fresh ingredients, making any surface look like a piece of art. Catering for all intolerance and allergies, the custom made grazing tables and platters serve up to 85 and are a real party piece.
My first experience, definitely won’t be my last, was Sunday just gone. We had platters to accompany a family BBQ. My family inhabits corners all across the world, from America to Amsterdam, this being the case, we often don’t get the chance to all be together in one place.
Last weekend celebrated, not only my uncles 60th birthday, but also 4 generations being in the same garden, eating from the same table and laughing at the same jokes.
SPREAD uses locally sourced produce and ingredients where possible, meaning no two are the same. They also use recyclable paper, ramekins, and cutlery when setting up your order, or bamboo wood boats, napkins and cutlery are available to purchase. Decorations, themes and request can all be fulfilled, making them completely personal to you.
I would highly recommend for any occasion, adaptable, beautiful and entirely edible. Why wouldn’t you want these pieces of art at your party?
Hello, my name is Harriet Devaney and welcome to my blog. First things first, here is a little about me. I am 28, I used to work for West Midlands Ambulance Service until I met my boyfriend. Jimmy is a DJ and I now get to travel around the world with him photographing his career. We are based in Cheshire most of the winter and Ibiza through the summer months. I am a HUGE foodie. Always have been. My love for food begins with my mum, she is a caterer for a whole host of events and I grew up trying and tasting foods for small dinner parties to 500 person weddings.
It wasn’t until I reached my late teens I noticed I felt ill or uncomfortable eating certain foods, I went to the drs and was told it was up to me to work it out with trial and error. I tried everything I could think of to try and solve what was making me swell. This was VERY FRUSTRATING!!
It has taken me the best part of my twenties to learn and understand my intolerances within food. It’s been a long old, frustrating road but now I finally go for months without bloating, heartburn, gas, or just a general nausea feeling.
I used to dread agreeing to go out to eat or round to someone’s house, because of the aftermath that would occur due to hidden ingredients in the food. Even when asking for ‘no onions’, plates would come out covered in chives or a spice used would have onion and garlic powder in. In turn I would then blow up, to the point I would look 6 months pregnant, sometimes for up to three days after the meal. So uncomfortable!!
Alongside my sensitivity to all in the allium family, I am also gluten free. To a person with no intolerances I am a very fussy person but actually over the last 9 years I have learnt to cook dishes bursting with flavour, and these are what I want to share with you, to help those with the same or similar problem and to give ideas to those who are interested in learning about alternatives.
This blog will take you on my journey, my food knowledge and how I cope with a life built around avoiding shit. #ANTIALLIUM
I hope you love it!!
