“Long lead time, but to be expected at the moment. Meat comes frozen (probably due to atypical nice weather) some of it was starting to defrost. If you're going to put the meat in the freezer, make sure you're in to receive it!”

Sorry that you found our delivery time too slow, we have done everything we can to keep up with the volume of orders we are receiving during lockdown. We also make it abundantly clear on our Home Page that we have a two week leadtime to try to keep the staff that we do have working protected from too much stress.

“Brilliant personal service, super quality products carefully packaged, In these tricky Covid-19 times I have sent several packages as gifts to relatives to say thank you, cheer up, congratulations on safe arrival of baby and happy birthday that allowed separated families to enjoy a joint virtual delicious breakfast. All have been received with excitement and pleasure. Very, very happy with the quick and efficient personal response when I had muddled billing and shipping addresses. Can’t recommend highly enough.”

“As you have asked - in truth it was okay - the reputation of Wagyu I was hoping for better than the week before, which I had steak from morrisons (pre-packed) which was better - (different cut in truth) biltong again okay but I am often in South Africa so you are up against it. the Lardo I think I didn't use correctly?? - it doesn't dissolve like a goose fat but it turned into part a wet pork scratching and some liquid fat juice? - so all in all okay wasn't a winner this time but will maybe try some other cuts in the future. thanks Jamie”

Michael - What a shame you didn't enjoy the veal cheeks ... we would never put such a description up on the website if we hadn't experienced it ourselves ... or had favourable previous reviews... really unfortunate that you didn't get the same result. We also sell large amounts into a Greek Restaurant in London who can't get enough of them, so we really don't know what to comment. It does involved a really long slow braise and the small amount of white tissue you describe that is within the cheeks (not veins) does usually cook out. However, luckily the suckling pig turned out really well for you and you seem pleased with the mince. Thanks for the feedback.
