Fantastic Feedback from Game Fair Demo

Following on from my cookery domo at the East Anglian Game Fair, I was delighted when the email below dropped into my inbox!!

Hi Chris,

We thought we would contact you to tell you how much we enjoyed your demonstration on Saturday. This was the third time we had been to see you at this venue and each time we have come away having been really entertained watching you.

This year, although a slightly different format, was great. We were amazed at where the time went. Your ‘lecture’ was funny, informative and instructive. Why hasn’t someone thought to explain beef before? Suddenly so many things have fallen into place and I will think again about which cuts to order when I am out and which to buy for the home. I have been cooking steak for the last 30 years and it is only now that I actually understand what it is all about and how to achieve the desired result.

Thank you.

We look forward hopefully to seeing you again next year.

Lorraine and Alan Day

The Flying "Camel" Inns!!!

On Sunday 25th April, Camel Racing (yes, you heard me right) came to Fakenham Racecourse!!

The event was held in aid of the East Anglian Air Ambulance and featured jockeys representing 8 North Norfolk pubs of which The Flying Kiwi Inns was one.

Pippa Case expertly piloted the Flying Kiwi Inns camel to cross the line first making the Flying Kiwi Inns a winner again!

We spent the day at Fakenham races giving out cakes and drinks to the great and good of Norfolk on what was a truly superb day!
