Harts of Stur Kitchen Issue 08, Winter 2018-19 | Page 2

W elcome to issue eight of Kitchen Magazine, and what a busy few months it has been since the last edition. We have just launched our brand new website (find out more about this on page 12) and we are well into the first phase of our planned shop expansion. It was certainly one of the most glorious and hottest summers we have had in recent years (I’m just about old enough to remember the summer of ‘76). But now that the nights are drawing in and the temperatures are dropping, our thoughts turn towards preparing for the festive period. We have some tasty alternatives to the traditional Christmas dinner and ideas for Christmas baking. Our super 16 page pull-out gift guide will provide you with plenty of inspiration for food and drink lovers. And with free UK mainland delivery on orders over £50 you can avoid the crowds and order from the comfort of your own home. Meet some of our new team members on page 4. These lovely people are here to help when you contact us or visit our store. Discover some of their festive likes and look out for their top tips throughout the magazine. I hope you have an enjoyable and fun- filled festive period and wish you all a happy Christmas and a peaceful New Year. Philip Hart Managing Director 2 www.hartsofstur.com
