Gingko Details
We believe that ‘good food' is the kind of food which gives pleasure to the senses and sustenance to the body. In other words, it is food which is both delicious and nutritious, food which restores both body and spirit. You will probably hear us refer to our food as ‘clean' food. By this we mean that our food is prepared using fresh, whole ingredients of the best quality, without preservatives or colourants, and with as much organic content as possible. Food which is essentially hand made the ‘slow food' way, so that the ingredients get to speak for themselves. We're of the view that the pleasure of good food should not find itself sacrificed on the altar of intolerance or allergy. Thus we offer an extensive array of gluten free, sucrose free and vegan foods which are just as delicious as everything else we make! We believe that food presents the opportunity to discover the world – we draw from a wealth of culinary traditions, and we hope our passion for such foodie explorations will become one you'll share with us. Finally a little explanation of our name – the ginkgo biloba (you'll find it spelt both ways) or maidenhair tree is one of the oldest living fossils, their tenacity evident in the fact that trees there survived the bombing of Hiroshima, and are still alive today! They can reach heights of 50m, their delicate fan shaped leaves turning buttercup yellow in autumn. Trees have been sacred in almost all cultures since time immemorial. They are one of our most potent symbols of life, their roots reaching down to honour the passage of time and history, their branches reaching up in a celebration of renewal and life going forward. They offer sustenance and sanctuary, both of which we hope you'll experience at gingko!
