For twenty years Maggie Cooper and Vanessa Scott ran the kitchens at Strattons and built up strong relationships with local suppliers and growers. They always sourced cheeses from the UK until the likes of Jane Murray, Ellie Betts and the awesome Mrs Temples put Norfolk firmly on the map with their delicious varieties. The Deli offers cheeses from Norfolk and Suffolk, not wrapped in plastic and kept and sold at perfect maturation. British cheese has gone through a Renaissance following its demise during the Second World War when all milk was processed into ‘Mousetrap’ at the behest of the Ministry of Agriculture. As old recipes and dairies have been reinstated, new cheese makers have been inspired to produce that most fundamental and fabulous of artisan products. Enjoy a plate of it with some of our crackers, breads, damson paste or roasted nuts or take some away for supper with a bottle of one of our organic or bio-dynamic wines.
