The Community Oven

How do you see the world?
Is it perfect? Of course not.
Can we fix all the problems? Of course not.
Can we make a difference? Of course we can.

Doesn’t matter how small the achievement we believe in making a difference to people’s lives, it may be in a very small way, but that’s the core of what we do, we want to make a difference and that is our purpose.

It’s important to appreciate food, it’s such a fundamental aspect of all our lives, we believe that cooking and eating together can be a very beneficial experience and helps form bonds in a community. We also believe that good food should be healthy and above all tasty!

It is difficult to say much more that that.

Whilst looking, I happened to stumble over the Community Oven and it is difficult to say much more that that. I tire very quickly of sleek professionally fitted coffee shops, restaurants and farm shops. Gravitating rather to greasey food trucks specialising in high carb junk foods liberally doused with fried onions, spicy sauces and accompanied by a sticky drink.

Honest, unapologetic and unpretentious.

But not all of the time. Occasionally one does stumble over someone else hell bent on doing different.

Hayling Billy Bites

Topped up with fuel at the Applegreen filling station on Hayling. Then forded the water course on the road to the parking site behind the ESSO garage on the Billy trail, for a couple of Billy Burgers.

Criss crossing through the countryside in Northamptonshire to the urban bustle of London. From Hertfordshire to Buckinghamshire this is a busy, busy mobile shop and South African street food stall.

Dorchester

IF YOU go down to the woods today, you won’t find any old roadside café.

Frustrated with the dining choice available at the roadside, caterer Mark Jones came up with an idea that would entertain all the family.

His café based on the design of a fairytale gingerbread house is hidden in a copse on farmland behind the layby on the A35 at Stinsford near Dorchester – and it’s already creating a stir.

Theatrical designer and artist Phil Coombs, who works for Mr Jones’s Whole Hog event catering company, spent almost two months making the unusual exterior.

He used a range of materials including wood, fibreglass, polystyrene and expandable foam to create a fairytale-like scene featuring liquorice sweets, candy canes, a nougat layered roof and even a witch sticking out of the chimney. Mr Jones said: “It’s certainly turning heads. Everyone who comes here wants to photograph it.”

He added: “It’s something the kids will remember from their journey when they’re on holiday.”

The gingerbread house is actually a shipping container previously used by the Ministry of Defence as a field kitchen.

Mr Jones bought it to replace a catering trailer which used to be at the site.

He said: “We used to take the trailer backwards and forwards every day on to the farm and after about a year I decided to get something else because it was so much hassle and a lot of mud was being created in the winter.

“I discovered the container on the internet.

“It’s ideal because it’s totally hygienic and very secure.

“We thought about turning it into a log cabin at first before deciding on the gingerbread house idea.

“We’re in a clearing in the woods so it’s a perfect setting.”

Mr Jones explained how he cleared the site of fly-tipped rubbish and created a picnic area before starting the catering venture, known as the Farm Stop, last year.

He uses local suppliers to source his bread, meat, eggs, honey and ice-cream.

No polystyrene is used and only Fairtrade coffee and tea are served.

Mr Jones said: “The roadside café is a thing of the past and nowadays there isn’t a lot of choice for people on the road.”

Portchester Castle

Visitors to Portchester Castle will inevitably bump into Claude.

Not your standard same old, same old. This vintage mobile coffee bar is deliberately different.

Crab sandwiches in Fareham

 

Offering locally roasted coffee, home baked cakes, savouries, waffles and their delicious crab sandwiches.

Suspended coffee service Hampshier

 

But what is really special is the passion and enthusiasm of everyone involved. Providing a service that is different. A genuine committment to local, to their customers, to the community and if you happen to have forgotten your wallet there is a token board which everyone is welcome to use to redeem a suspended coffee that has been paid forward.

Burritos

Found The Taco Box tucked away in a quiet side street in East Wittering. Have been looking out for them for a while now.

I tend to get my Tacos confused with Quesadillas and didn’t realise that Ninos is not another variation of the same.

Burritos however, I do know and burrito filled with crispy pork belly roasted in onions, garlic and paprika, is irresitable.
