Filled Baguettes | Every bakery in the UK offers takeaway or sit down filled baguettes, some unusual combinations and some fairly standard, like cheese and pickle, ham salad, chicken salad. More and more bakeries however, are offering more ‘exotic’ filled rolls and baguettes, based on continental flavours such as salami and brie cheese, chicken with Provencale pesto, tuna nicoise with tuna, egg, anchovies, green beans and vinaigrette. | Cafes, Bakery |

Crispy Duck with Pancakes | Served in virtually every Chinese restaurant in the UK, Crispy Duck is a sociable way of eating with a group of friends or family. The duck is air-dried and then roasted in the oven with a honey and soy glaze and Chinese 5-Spice. This renders the skin crisp while the flesh stays tender. It is then shredded and served with a plum sauce, pancakes and finely sliced matchstick pieces of cucumber and spring onion. Take one of the pancakes from the bamboo steamer, a spoonful of sauce and top with the shredded vegetables and duck. Roll up and crunch it to it, simply delicious! | Chinese |
|
Oriental Style Sea Bass with Ginger and Spring Onions | If you are a fish lover, this is the dish to have. Delicate melting sea bass, served with warming ginger and crunchy spring onions, garlic and soy – truly mouthwatering! Sometimes served on a bed of crisp greens and accompanied by dips, this is often found in Vietnamese restaurants in the UK, but can also be found in higher classed Chinese eateries. | Chinese, Vietnamese |

Minestrone | The classic and renowned Italian soup, comprising small pasta shapes, a rich chicken stock and finely diced vegetables such as celery, onions, tomatoes, carrots beans and herbs.
