'Shuba' - Takeaway Special - This Week Only?! Gallery Kitchen Cafe

Available as a takeaway option this week is Shuba! Why not give this a try as something a little different?

This Slavic extravaganza may look quite the vibrant, culinary masterpiece, yet it’s made from the simplest of ingredients: beetroot, carrot and potatoes, in addition to mayonnaise and onions.

Having a rummage found these old photos stamped Feb 1998 when Frank & Whittome Joinery Manufacturers were running the show. If these are your snaps let us know (and thanks in advance)!

Previous research was inaccurate, and here's an interesting update: so F & W Joinery formed around 1894 in Belvedere Road / Swan Quay, and did indeed expand to include the entire Belvedere Rd & Quay Lane section of the Whitbread site from 1971 (ground level from Belvedere Rd). It is fascinating that the buildings now occupied by Creek Creative, assigned to no.1 Abbey Street, back then were split between Whitbread and F & W for twenty years, such that almost all our Basement Level, and the back half of the upper floors were F & W, while Whitbread retained the Abbey Street front, and front half of the Top Floor until they totally sold up in 1991, and soon after F & W further expansion took over completely until January 2006. (We didn't get started until July 2009!)

If anyone has any more details and/or photos inside or out of this site and this corner of we would love to see them...
