Pub goers in Lancashire would be advised to think carefully before
ordering their next pub lunch, following an innovative announcement by
one licensee.
Zimbabwean
Portia Gwanzura has said that she intends to introduce her regulars to
a taste of true African cuisine, and has put caterpillar on the menu as
a result.
However, Ms Gwanzura admits that bridging the taste gap may be a step too far for all but the most daring customers.
"For
those people who are feeling adventurous there will be things like
caterpillar available. Our menu will still have all the traditional pub
foods but we wanted to offer people something different," she told the
Manchester Evening News newspaper.
The pub, in Leigh, Greater
Manchester, is named the Moonraker, and will also be offering African
beer and cider as well as traditional music and dance, all performed by
Ms Gwanzura herself via her group the Hohodza Band.
