Mango Tree restaurant

It’s a big space is Mango Tree but one that always seems to be full, an indication of the consistent pulling power this restaurant has. The restaurant seems particularly popular with young TV actors, sports stars, divas and rappers. Prada handbags are in evidence, as are bare shoulders and WAG tans. It all adds a nice bit of glamour to an evening.

Go Dutch with Edam

Edam is 25% less fat than cheddar and other hard cheeses – kids also love the natural and mild flavour. It has 14% more calcium in it than cheddar so a bonus for those growing bones. The salads are light, refreshing and perfect as a light lunch or great as part of a bigger meal. The baked eggs with Edam and ham are perfect for brunch and a great way if using eggs this Easter! The meatball and cheese pasta bake is a tasty dish perfect for all the family.
