Giffords Circus Cookbook (inbunden, eng)

‘This book is a stunningly beautiful and passionate evocation of Nell’s final season – do not skip a word of it – it’s a work of art and an ace cookbook as well!' Emma Bridgewater CBE

Giffords Circus has been touring the south of England every summer since 2000.

It is a traditional village circus with a uniquely British flavour, blended with extraordinary acts from all over the world. Their restaurant Circus Sauce is headed by chef Ols Halas and seats circus goers in a beautifully decorated tent on site. It offers a new menu every week and uses seasonal and local produce from the surrounding area.

Recipes include Spring Chicken with Mushrooms and Asparagus, West Country Cassoulet and Spiced Panna Cotta with Baked Apples, and even Tweedy's Banoffee Pie with Salted Caramel, resulting in some guests returning several times in the summer to experience a new menu within familiar surroundings.

This extraordinary cookbook is a celebration of the food that brings the circus and its audience together, alongside the story of the circus itself and its vibrant community – it's a celebration of the colour, personalities and images of the circus and its slow journey through the English summer countryside
