• On The Chadwick Family's Emporium of Fine Foods:

  Posted on 27th of June 2007

  This family run business is a true supporter of local, English and British produce and for me that's what a local food hero is about. Lancashire Whisky, Wigan Honey and Uncle Joe's are all made nearby and all sold in the shop. They hold special events for English Wine Week and British Food Fortnight every year and are currently in the middle of A Taste Of Summer fortnight - the hand dipped chocolate strawberries are to die for. The restaurant is serving "Merry Jelly" - an alcoholic strawberry jelly which I'm hoping to find the time to try. The meat is of a consistently high quality and all sourced locally and slaughtered on site. This business attracts customers from all over the North West and justifiably so.
