A Christmas Menu With a Charitable Twist

Bundobust has announced their Christmas menu, introducing a new dish as well as including those established favourites.  Sprout bhaji anyone?

Sprout bhajis and the other dishes are all available now.  The bhajis are deep-fried with onion, broccoli, fennel and chilli, served with cranberry chutney – all to transform the vegetable which has been much maligned over the years.

You might ask ‘What’s new, then?’ –  It’s the sprout bhaji butty!  Do not pour your scorn upon this, because every time one of these butties is sold, £1 will be donated towards a local charity, helping the homeless and vulnerable.  The Leeds charity of choice this year is Canopy Housing, who help homeless people to transform empty houses into homes.  Anyway, the old adage ‘Don’t knock it until you’ve tried it’ comes into play here and it’s surely worth giving it a chance if you know you’re putting another £1 into a good cause.

£1 from each Sprout Bhaji Butty goes to our current charity partners.
