24 Sussex delivery!

I was so excited about delivering mustards for the Prime Minister’s official residence today!

Executive chef Tim Wasylko took a quick break from kitchen preparations for two garden parties coming up next week to give me a tour of the house & grounds. Tim is serving our Classic Wholegrain and Canadian Maple mustards with his barbecued beef he’ll be serving to over 400 guests at both events. Thanks Tim!

Fun!
