Crafting a menu for a commercial kitchen or a prestigious dinner party can prove tricky but a versatile, superior and simple to produce bill of fare is a necessity to stand out from the crowd and leave diners with a memorable experience.
The ever popular culinary technique harnessed by the likes of Heston Blumenthal and television show Masterchef; sous vide enables chefs and caterers to significantly extend menu offerings, giving the appearance of multiple chef de parties, without an increase in workload or compromising quality.
The Gloucestershire-based company Create Great, makes this a reality and is a catering supplier with a difference. It supplies high calibre cuisine, using an increasingly fashionable method, while providing the support and advice needed to create a profitable dining experience.
Create Great provides a diverse range of the finest sous vide dishes; maintaining the highest quality, retaining all goodness, flavour and freshness. Think outside the bag; sous vide improves efficiencies, increases productivity and profitability, boasts prolonged shelf life and reduced wastage.
Myles Ball, director and owner of Create Great, commented: “After a successful career in hotel management, I set myself the task of turning around tired and struggling public houses and restaurants; soon establishing the importance of food and the overall dining experience. My success boiled down to creating menus which reflect great dining value, choice and generous portions, alongside passion and drive to turn businesses around.
“I now have the knowledge and understanding to help others create a winning menu which is of a high calibre; without them paying over the odds for additional help, materials and equipment. Sous vide dishes are reliable, straightforward and immensely easy to use in a fast paced environment.”
Myles, who is a successful publican, and currently manages the Duke of York. With over 25 years’ experience in the catering industry; Myles and his team welcome the opportunity to discuss how independent restaurants and caterers can also Create a Great menu.
