Saltwood On The Green Backs NSPCC Plant Fair With Chocolate Brownies
Saltwood on the
Green restaurant, near Hythe in Kent, is backing the NSPCC's annual fund
raising Garden & Plant Fair at Saltwood Castle on Saturday 2 May, by
putting a special Chocolate Brownie dish on its menu.
The restaurant
will donate proceeds of the £5 dish sold all week from 2 May to the
charity.
“Being an
American, I come from a land where chocolate brownies have near religious
status, and these ones come guilt-free as they're all for a very good cause,”
said Saltwood on the Green chef-owner Jeff Kipp, adding, “These are a favourite
of mine.”
Chef Jeff's
chocolate brownie recipe is a tantalising creation with malted ice cream with a
caramelised chocolate sauce.
Saltwood on the
Green is fast gaining a reputation simple, but exciting, cooking with an
emphasis on light bites and sharing plates. Kipp creates enticing modern
British dishes with a contemporary American twist, utilising the best the
abundance of local ingredients from carefully chosen producers.
Before opening
this, his first restaurant, Jeff learned his trade working in some of the world's
best kitchens, including the famed Charlie Trotter's in Chicago and Gordon
Ramsay's three Michelin-starred restaurant in Chelsea. He has also held
exec chef roles at top London restaurants including Duck & Waffle and
SushiSamba and global food home delivery company, Deliverance.
The Garden
& Plant Fair offers visitor a unique opportunity to see inside the grounds
of the historic SaltwoodCastle, the former home of historian and author the
late Rt Hon Alan Clark MP, which is not normally opened to the public. The
event, now in its 13th year, is held by king permission of Alan's widow, Jane
Clark, who owns the restaurant's freehold. Last year the fair raised
£12,000 for vulnerable children and funding for confidential Childline support.
As well as
having more than 20 stalls to browse, visitors can also explore the
picturesque castle's moat, dungeons, battlements and secret garden, as well as
seeing Alan Clark's classic car collection. Refreshments will available.
