SPANISH REGIONAL FOOD CASTILE AND LEON

Castile and Leon is known as the "land of the roasts".  The favourites are roast suckling pig and roast lamb.  The meat is seasoned with aromatic herbs and through a long cooking process on a spit over hot charcoal or in  an earthenware dish until it becomes meltingly tender. The animal has to be very young and milk fed  to produce the superb flavour and tenderness.  In some restaurants around the south of the area the suckling pig is cut with a plate.  Along with the roast meat specialties another staple is the casserole.  The basic ingredients are usually meat or sausage and vegetables with the addition of either beans or chickpeas.

 "I just wanted to email you to thank you for our order - both parts were another triumph!

My parents thoroughly enjoyed the meal that we purchased for them as an early Father's Day treat - my father said that the lamb was some of the best he'd ever tasted and the lemon sorbet was utterly delicious. My mother said her own vegetarian meal was also very tasty indeed! We really enjoyed our picnic - it felt thoroughly decadent and we had some very jealous glances from other people at the open air festival we went to! - And there was so much that we still had enough left for a second picnic today!

Thanks again for another superb product! There's really nobody to beat you!"

Alison Coates, Preston

Joanne, Leicestershire

 
"Hi, just a quick email to say thanks. I have just had my second order delivered from yourselves, your service is excellent, your food is superb! and I will certainly be ordering from you again in the very near future.
Thanks again."
Dave Carton, Hants

Rachel Kenwright-Hughes, West Midlands


"I must write and let you know how delighted my mother was with her Mother's Day Banquet-in-a-Box.   This was something new this year instead of flowers and chocs and she was so pleased to receive this meal which she said was excellent in all ways, even down to the packaging.
Peter Mitton

I just wanted to say how pleased I was with the meal I had on New Years Eve courtesy of Banquet in a Box.  The food was gorgeous and easy to prepare.  I definitely would order from you again!  Also I wanted to say how helpful the staff were, they really made ordering easy and also changed parts of my order when I realised I had chosen the incorrect delivery date - a pleasure to order from."

Lorraine Peters, Kent

 "I've just placed my third order and just want to say that your food is absolutely fantastic!"

L Wark, East Ayrshire

 "Thank you so much for delivery of my order. Again, I am very impressed with the packaging and labelling of the food, which always arrives in excellent order. Everything tastes superb and all the instructions are spot-on (very important !)."

Mrs G Horstmann, Penzance, Cornwall

 "Many thanks for the wonderful service...the box of scallops was an anniversary present and was a huge success." Lesley Kettle, Perthshire
 

"Last week, I placed my first ever order with Banquet in a Box. Everything arrived perfectly packaged and on time, and we have eaten everything from the order over this Easter Weekend.  I have to say that the quality of the food was superb, and I shall definitely be ordering from you again within the next few weeks. The Lamb Shanks were out of this world, and your puddings were absolutely delicious. I am now tempted to order two of every pudding on your menu because, if they all taste as good as the Chocolate and the Passionfruit Bavarois, then I would happily live on puddings alone for a week or two!"
Joanna Gardner, Cheltenham

"I would just like to add that last night I used the food I ordered earlier in the week when friends from New Zealand visited. We were all very impressed with both taste and quality of the products. I had to look after my 2 year old Grandaughter this week so I knew my time would be limited regarding shopping and food preperation so finding your website was wonderful. I managed to sit and enjoy a lovely meal with friends without having all the hardwork  beforehand."
Jo Redfern, Bristol
