I believe that the tastiest food comes from good quality ingredients cooked simply, in a way that lets their natural flavours shine through. I try and source local produce whenever I can, and endeavour to use as many seasonal ingredients as possible. Here is a selection of dishes that could find their way to your kitchen table, but The Little Cooking Company prides itself on providing a bespoke service and will cook whatever it is that you would like to eat. So let’s talk food...
