• On Fresh Basil:

  Posted on 23rd of August 2007

  Fresh Basil is the reason why shopping locally is a truly enjoyable experience. A Saturday shop is not complete without filling your fresh basil reusable bag full of fantastic cheeses, pies, cakes (the chocolate brownies and clementine cake are to die for) vegetarian haggis and I could go on. The food available on the menu is full of quality ingredients and all taste superb. The staff are incredible where else in this day and age do you get to know the staff to the point where I embarassingly found myself short of money to pay and they simply said I could give it them on my next visit - (which I did I hasten to add!) Sam particulary is full of friendly banter and is gaining a certain notoriety in the town especially since introducing this year for the first time an annual food festival to Belper. It makes me proud to live in here. Good luck in the final you deserve to win. God help Belper if we together as a town helped by BATS (Belper Against Tesco Superstore) don't suceed our fight to stop the invasion of the superstore we must all pledge to continue to shop local especially in Fresh Basil.
