» Grandpa Lew's

Grandpa Lew is a traveller and an adventurer who has travelled the world and sailed the seven seas.  As he crossed the globe he experienced new and different tastes, aromas and flavours.  On his return to England, he gathered the things he learnt from his adventures - food and drink, recipes and products, from every corner of the world.

Before long, he was re-creating the delicious fare he had experienced along the way, bringing the memories of his travels to life so his nearest and dearest and you too can share them.
