DD's Cafe

09/06/2013

Thanks to all my fantastic customers over the last year and a half, you all made DD's great! Just a quick note to say that as of Saturday 8th June I have closed down as I am taking over The Florist pub in Shaw Heath. As of September we will be serving food there too and may even put some of the challenges on the menu for those with a BIG appetite!!!! Thanks again for all your custom! :)

We are looking to sell DD'S Cafe. We have got the go ahead to take over our local pub as long as we an get the bond together in the next few weeks, and the only way is to sell DD's. Do you know anyone that might be interested? Are you interested? It's a great little cafe currently taking 1k - 1.5k a week, but with a lot of potential to earn more. There is the option of doing deliveries, something we never really branched out into, and there is also a new industrial estate opening 2 minutes walk away. The cafe only has 2 small tables and people rarely sit in to eat, so having to pay VAT is not an issue as it is most cafes. We're looking for offers around 15k, but as we need a quick sale, reasonable offers will be considered. Please share this status if you live in Stockport, as someone you may know may be interested. For more information call Danielle on 07824 739 414. Cheers!

Hi Everyone! To all DD's fans that live in the Manchester area... tomorrow morning on Key 103 OJ Borg (the guy who presents the lottery) is going to be attempting one of our challenges live on air! We are delivering it to them between half 8 and 9 so please listen in if you are able. He'll either be doing the massive rodeo burger or the bulging breakfast burrito, he's not decided yet. Its all for a good cause, Key 103's Mission Christmas - aiming to get a Christmas present to every child in Manchester whose parents can't afford one. I have promised that for every person who successfully completes one of our challenges between now and 19th December I will put ten pounds in the pot. Good luck OJ!

Hi Guys. It's been a while since I've posted from the cafe due to being very busy and totally exhausted! Plenty has been going on over the last couple of months. The place has a had a fantastic refurb courtesy of my fabulous Dad! There are now 3 new challenges to tackle and if you manage to eat any one of them in 45 minutes in the cafe you get the meal for FREE!!!! Shariffe Goorahoo managed to complete the 'Bulging Breakfast Burritto' today in just 20 minutes! Thats 4 sausage, 4 bacon, 4 spam, 4 black pudding, 2 tomatoes, 3 eggs and a handful of cheese wrapped in 3 large tortillas....think you can do it too???? Or how about the 'Grilled Cheese Tower'? 6 slices of doorstop toast with 1lb of cheddar AND 1lb mozzarella. Only one has tried, and failed miserably! Last but not least is the new, improved 'Rodeo Burger'. 4 1/4 pounders, 6 bacon, 6 onion rings on a large barmcake with salad and bbq sauce served with 1lb chips. More than 20 people took on the old rodeo burger challenge which was smaller and only Shariffe Goorahoo managed to complete it. Can somebody, anybody knock Shariffe off his throne? I'll let you know!
Finally with Christmas round the corner, its well worth popping in. We'll be raffling off a Christmas hamper in the near future and I'm sure to start baking some festive treats over the next few weeks. Hope to see you all soon. DD.x

If anyone needs catering for kids parties, business meetings, events or other do's, let me know. Here's a pic of a buffet I did for a kids party recently. Sandwiches, sausage rolls, frankfurters, chicken nuggets, star pizzas, crudites, mini rolls, chocolate fingers, jelly and ice cream and drinks all for 40 quid. It was enough to feed 16 kids and most of the adults too! Give me ring if you or anyone you know needs an event catering on 07824 739 414. Cheers guys!

The staff at the DIY school in the mill recently asked to me to make a cheeseburger topped with black pudding. They order it so much it's now got its own name..The Pudding Burger! They tell all the people who do courses there to try it and yesterday two of the guys came up with these creations. Doorstop bread, salad, 2 x bacon, burger, black pudding, cheese and finally, all topped off with an egg and another slice of doorstop bread! Wow, now thats a big butty!

Just to let you all know as well, we will be closing at 3p.m Monday to Thursday now as Dean has started his new job now and I have to pick up Ellie from school. Apologies if this causes and inconvenience.
