Peep our gorgeous Aylesbury duck crown, made with absolute love and care.

We brine, blanch and dry-age it for seven days in a controlled environment before roasting, so it comes out perfectly crisp on the outside and juicy in the middle.

We’ll slice it for you, but not before showing it off in all its glory!
