Hey lovers,
Yesterday was the second instalment of our special take on Sunday brunches and gosh, it really is so invigorating to open our tunnel kitchen and serve a full house of hungry brunchlings.
Thank you again and again and again to everyone who came along and shared their weekend with us. We hope you floated into bed last night with warm memories of fruity Ethiopian coffee and Indi-Mexican feasts.
To everyone else: we’ll be holding new and unique Sunday brunches until Christmas only, so grab your seats now or forever hold your peace.
Love forever,
Doug & Dom

Hello brunchlings,

We've had a bucketload of questions pouring in about what was served last weekend, so here it is, brunch menu número uno:
- vegan smoked salmon made from salt crusted, slow roasted winterpein, marinated in tamari and liquid smoke then spiralled together with braaied courgettes for extra char
- grilled rosemary and sundried tomato cornbread topped with fanned avocado, crispy capers and pickled red onion
- a dollop of our house chutney of the week made with pineapple, lime leaf, tomato, chili, onion and whole spices
- lemon and garlic roasted cavolo nero, and
- a drizzle of soured cashew coconut cream

It was pretty epic. As with everything Cropbox, the plate will reinvent itself tomorrow for a totally new and unique brunchtime feast.

Spots are almost full, book yours now >>>>> https://app.tablein.com/booking/cropbox-brunch

Talk about soul and funk, talk about loving great food and expressing just that in the kitchen today, YOU ABSOLUTE TROOPER! it was such a delight to have you in the kitchen with us.

Emanuelle was up early and kicked the day off with zesting + juicing lemons, mashing up butter beans, shaping burgers, dolloping sauces.... and of course DJing her funky beats in the kitchen... Pure bliss this chick is.

Hope you get a chance to check out her playlist on spotify "gettin back in the groove" while eating Emanuelle's favourite ingredients, today's box included

A volcano of noodles made from poodles, with bright pink tadpoles and a giant plum (not peach) perched on top. A crusty h**p seed coated snozzpear filled with onion toe jam, squashing the roasted fennel beneath. Slimey spice mushrooms planted in green savoury muck, trippy lolly beetroot and crunchy carrots with a hint of garden hose, human bean milk dressing 😂

Did you know that Roald Dahl was a fighter pilot with the Royal Air Force during World War II. And it was a plane crash near Alexandria, Egypt that actually inspired him to begin writing. .
