Asalaam moe allaykoem and Good Morning.

AlghamdoeLielah, the weekend is here again with some good rain last night but now the weather is looking good for a beach walk.😁

We are unfortunately not doing any hot meals again next week.🙈

The the pace for Year-end functions has really picked up. AlghamdoeLielah.

We are however still able to keep our stock levels up for our frozen meals and biscuits.

So as always, our *frozen soups, frozen meals* as well as all our other goodies, are available throughout the week 😊from 08h30 to 17h00.

Here is this week's quote.
