Many restaurants have reverted back to offering at home restaurant kits in light of level three restrictions. A clever way to allow businesses to continue running, it gives you the chance to support your favourite eateries from a safe distance.
Each one comes pre-prepped, usually with most of the hard graft already out of the way so all you need to do is follow the instructions, reheat and plate up.
Below are 22 at home restaurant kits to consider giving a whirl next time the hunger hits.
Bang @ home
A Michelin guide restaurant, the Bang menu changes weekly and comprises five different courses. Yes, FIVE! Extremely easy to put together and extremely delicious – a win win.
