A Spanish table. An English weekend.

A few things for a lunch that turns into the afternoon.

Start with something to share

A plate of jamón, bread, olives and a bowl of tomatoes makes an inviting starting point. Use what you enjoy, leave room on the table and let people help themselves.

Mix the familiar with the new

Your favourite English cheese can sit beside Spanish pantry discoveries. This is a table for enjoying, not a test of authenticity.

A small shortlist

Serving bowls, a useful board and washable table linen are good places to begin. Our food collection is still being developed; these are ideas rather than stocked product recommendations.
