Here at PiXieS we value the food we give our children. |
We strongly believe in the importance of a well balanced and nutritional diet.
Here at PiXieS the importance of giving children health-building and delicious food is never underestimated. You will always walk into the building to the smell of today’s dinner bubbling away. Many parents have requested our recipes as when they try to reproduce the food at home they will say “yes but it’s not like the one we have at PiXieS” Some have even told their children that they have ordered it from the cook!!

Dietary requirements for each child's needs are recorded and monitored on a daily basis. We cook for several children, for example those with medical diets or religious requirements, vegetarian and vegan foods, our cook is able to accommodate for many varieties. They do their best to replicate the meals so that the child won't feel they are any different.
|
All our food is freshly made and cooked on site using the finest ingredients to ensure your child receives all the goodness he/she needs. All our meals are cooked from scratch without the use of processed foods. Lasagne, sausage casserole, quiche all start out life as raw ingredients and the only tins you will find are tomatoes and baked beans.
We order our meat from a reputable local butcher. This includes lamb mince, diced chicken, turkey chipolatas and diced pork.
Our menu works on a four week rota. Over the four weeks we cook four roast dinners, of which one will be on a Tuesday, one on a Wednesday one on a Thursday and one on a Friday. We try our hardest to accommodate all children even those who do one or two sessions a week. Our afternoon tea has been developed by the children looking at what they enjoy and our all time favourite is our Cheese and Marmite bake, it’s divine.
