Though we are currently practising social distancing, the good news is we do not have to forgo our normal culinary experiences.

While we may not be able to dine in at restaurants or sip cocktails at our favourite bars, many venues are now providing takeaway options to ensure loyal customers and foodies can indulge at home.

Most importantly, this means we are able to continue playing a part in supporting local businesses, particularly hospitality, who unlike many others cannot work from home.
