End of Year Gifts for Teachers

CityPlatterCome 3rd week of June, every parent is shocked to realize that yet another academic year is about to end! Once the realization sinks then , then starts the frenzy of organizing everything.
The summer term is always a busy one. With school day trips, sports days, fairs, MUFTi days and so on there is always so much to remember. And top it all with the busy weekend calendars.

End of the year Teachers gifts is the real opportunity to appreciate all the hard work that they have been doing with your tiny tots! It has got to be special :)

You could go to a lot of places and find gifts like mugs, pens, notebooks, Best Teacher certificates, keychains and  so on. But have you realized just how many stationary items do teachers get flooded with every year!

Do something different this year! Why not try our personalized cake pops or Cookies as gifts instead. They can never be enough of this. We can put in a personalized message for your Teacher and you can choose from a variety of shapes and designs.


These are available in a variety of flavors:

 * Chocolate * Strawberry milkshake * Chocolate orange * Vanilla * Rasperry Ripple
* Salted caramel * Black forrest * Pink Lemonade and Pimms * Strawberry and Prosecco
* Lemon drizzle and Gin.
 These delights come in boxes ready to be gifted.  We can post these to your door :)


Priced at 5.50 GBP a box, these treats can be ordered on www.cityplatter.com or using our iPhone App. If you would like to discuss any design, please call us on 07391039382 or email us at info@cityplatter.com.

Hope you have a wonderful summer holidays!

Food Influences across Cultures : Menu Design : First Blog

Food is the basic necessity. It's the one thing everyone needs, wants or atleast thinks about atleast once a day. You live to eat or eat to live, whatever you may be your attitude, you would still enjoy a bite.
In my lifetime, I have lived in two great countries.
Born in India, a country that absolutely loves her food. There is such an extensive menu that the country has to offer that you could spend years just going around and having it all! If you are interested in expanding your culinary skills then you could spend a lifetime and still not learn it all..let alone master it!
As a professional I moved to the UK, the land of opportunities and my gateway to Europe. Having spent almost a decade here, this country is Home now :). To be honest, there is not a lot on the menu to offer but the country embraces all food that is good. So , I have been able to have the most authentic recipes from around the world.
There are some dishes that distinctly remind me of India , some not so much! But there are some elements that are very similar, in preparation, concept or simply looks.
Ultimately, everything is tied together..somewhere..somehow.
This is just my naive attempt to pen down my observations. No expert comments, just a simple foodie expressing her love for food and people ! :)

The Very First Blog!! Welcome :)
