Another fun afternoon and evening at FoodCycle today - and it was Faith's first time helping at this project. We hope she enjoyed the session as much as the three regulars did.

Gill was on the early shift as she had helped with the food collection and was on hand to open up the hall and get things started. With lots of part baked bread and frozen pastry she started on prepping the crostini for some crispy bruschetta and then got busy rolling out the pastry for 5 large quiches.

Next on the scene was Martin, who joined in the kitchen team alongside the other FoodCycle regulars and there was soon a hive of industry to prepare the tomatoes and salad for the starter, and the roasted veg for the couscous accompaniment to the quiche.

Omar, who had answered a late call for additional volunteers to host the session arrived, and was a whiz at serving the volunteers with pre-service fruit snacks before getting joining the other hosts with serving our guests and clearing up afterwards.

Finally, Faith arrived and was soon elbow deep in a sink full of suds as she had offered to take on the vital role of pot washer today, and was an absolute godsend as she cleaned up the cooking posts and all the dishes and cutlery from the meal. "It was my first time at FoodCycle and I really enjoyed it." she said.

There was lots of positive feedback again from the guests who really enjoyed the meal. Well done team. Another fabulous meal.
