It's only three days till the big opening of the new Dulwich Picture Gallery Café. The café has been undergoing a refurbishment over the last three weeks while the staff have been extremely busy with training.
This morning the team were learning about the new tea menu from Birchall, who are based less than two miles from the Gallery. Their award winning tea's are sourced exclusively from estates across East Africa and the leaves only ever hand plucked. Their every day black teas are 100% pure, main grade black tea leaf and their infusions, from classics such as Camomile and Peppermint through to Lemongrass and Ginger are packed with the best ingredients sourced from around the world to ensure intense aromas and revitalize the taste buds.
Look out for these beautiful teas on the new Breakfast, Lunch and Afternoon Tea menus at the Gallery, which reopens to the public on Tuesday 11th June.
Ceremonies will be held all over the UK this Sunday to commemorate the contribution of servicemen and women during the two World Wars and more recent conflicts. A very special occasion and we have been supporting the Poppy Appeal in all our outlets. Don't forget to pay your respects in the 2 minutes silence and why not enjoy a hearty lunch with all the family afterwards? Named after the 1944 motion picture 'Sunday Dinner for a Soldier' we think our slow roasted rib of dry aged Speyside beef and Yorkshire pudding (to be served with all the trimmings and a horseradish cream of course!) is very fitting for the occasion.
