Their ethos is -

We believe in the fundamental right to the basic pleasures of quality local food and consequently the responsibility to protect the heritage of food, tradition and culture that make such pleasure possible. We aim to acknowledge and celebrate local farmers, chefs, eateries and artisans who contribute to good, clean, fair food and to spread awareness of the Slow Food philosophy and the establishments that support it.

A well worth while experience working closely with these guys and supporting their commitment to their local community.

About Chef Tim

Another product of the prestigious Cornwall Catering College, Tim is very much part of a strong culinary heritage that boasts a reputation for excellent food.

The Cornish peninsula is surrounded by a sea of well-stocked fish and is often associated with great celebrity chefs. Rick Stein, Jamie Oliver, John Torode and Nathan Outlaw have all made their mark on the region. ​​

After graduating in 1984, Tim moved to London and worked for the RAF club in Piccadilly, under the guidance of celebrated, Gibraltar head chef, Lionel Artisani.

Tim progressed to be second in command at De Beers, in the City of London, working as Sous-chef before starting a family and embarking on his outside catering project in Cambridge.

Although Tim was becoming nationally renowned with a reputation for main courses, he focused on buffets and cricket teas, with seasonal, outdoor banquets thrown in to add versatility to his already expanding repertoire of culinary skills.

With an aptitude for handling pressure and busy kitchens, Tim became the Executive Chef at Marriott Hotels. Here he led a team of 14 chefs, covering a multitude of hotels within the chain.

The Marriott chain then launched a marketing campaign consisting of fine dining menus within its hotels. With Tim at the helm, he stayed with Marriott Hotels for a further two years before moving into contract catering with ESS (compass group).

His role as ESS was to preside over 5 kitchens across 2 RAF bases, including summer balls for 1000 people, fine dining in the Officer's Mess, and menu creation for the other units.

Always aware of emerging tastes and trends in the culinary world, Tim witnessed the evolution of street food whilst working in London. He quickly responded with a revolutionary initiative that eventually gripped the nation.

In July 2016, Tim's reputation followed him to the East Midlands where he would eventually team up with local chef, Craig Floate.

The best chefs will choose locally sourced food that is harvested close to the kitchen, and Citreus canapés use only the finest, freshest ingredients.

Although we make the whole canape from scratch, some chefs do cut corners with the couch and buy the base ingredients from external suppliers.

Citreus canapés are often the highlight of the menu with guests eager to sample our tasty toppings.

During weddings receptions, canapés can be served before or after the ceremony, making this diverse course such a welcoming treat.

Our combined 60-years’ worth of experience takes canapé creation to a whole new level of taste and excellence, and it’s an area of catering that allows us to really get our creative juices flowing and start to play with the menu.

What is Today’s Afternoon Tea?

Afternoon Tea is much more than a quick sip. It’s a meal in the afternoon where people enjoy sandwiches, usually cut in small sections or “fingers,” scones, pastries, and even little cakes. Scones are a recent addition to Afternoon Tea, but they were added to the menu since many people love them.

Once referred to as tea receptions, certain Afternoon Tea events could have as many as two hundred guests with an open invitation for people to visit the home between 4 pm and 7 pm, coming and going as they pleased.

In Britain today, Afternoon Tea is typically enjoyed as an occasional indulgence or to celebrate a special event, including bridal or baby showers, birthdays, or social events with a group of close friends.
