Pedge's Perfect Potatoes

Had a day off from eating out yesterday, the weather is wet so my beach walks are not really happening, (since moving to the sand pit I've become a bit of a wimp) and neither are the early morning runs for the same reason. Eating out + no exercise = well, you can imagine. Pedge also came home yesterday, so we spent the afternoon in the garden with his organic veg patch. Have to say I LOVE it, only wish i could replicate it in the sand pit i call home.

Small but incredibly sweet, perfect for a potato salad...

Potato, basil, avocado and egg salad. Always tastes so much better when just picked from the ground. Look out for Beetroot next!

Wow! What a great first find, just a few minutes outside Holt on the A148 to Fakenham. An award winning Organic farm shop and Cafe. Loved the decor, the staff were attentive and the food was too good!

I had dressed crab with a choice of 2 delicious salads as sides, i chose beetroot with maple syrup & sunflower seeds and Asian coleslaw with cashew nuts ~ yummy!!

Light and healthy leaving room for something sweet.. The cream tea was fantastic, one of the best we've had in a long time, jam made in Suffolk, fresh clotted cream and scones that ran a very close second to mother dears. Paradise cake was exactly that and the crisp meringue with a soft gooey centre, fresh cream and giant Norfolk raspberries comes highly recommended!

The Cafe, juice & smoothie bar is open daily from 8.30am - 5pm (11am - 4pm on Sundays) with main meals starting from £5.95. There's no need to book and for those just passing through you can pop into the shop for some amazing fresh local produce and even a take away ready meal! If all visits are going to be as good as this one, this is going to be a very pleasant experience!!
