Genius - thinking out of the box and onto the seas

The ice cream market here in Bournemouth is massive in the summer - over last weekend alone, just Saturday and Sunday; 70,000 ice creams were sold by the official beach vendors.

Over the years, this must have presented itself as an obvious opportunity to many a budding entrepreneur, wanting to grab a piece of this 99 action.

The challenge has been however, that the council owns and license all of the retail opportunities along the beach - the beach and promenade that they own.  I have no issue with this, as they do a phenomenal job of cleaning the beach every single night to present visitors with untouched golden sand every morning.

So, with all this said, for the creative thinker, there must be a way around this obstacle......  So, if you can't work from the beach or promenade,..... what about from the sea???

Genius!

Keeping it Indigenous

Our food philosophy here at The Highcliff is very much based around local produce, but only when it supports our sustainability principles and of course, when it is first and foremost great produce.

So here is a cracking new ingredient that will be making its way into our kitchen, on to the Highcliff Bar for our awesome bloody Mary's and on to our breakfast buffet.

Dorsetshire Sauce...  Quirky, cool and very much of the region - we love it!
