Questions
Is all your meat halal?
Yes. Every piece of meat we sell is halal: lamb, mutton, beef and chicken.
Can you cut meat for any recipe?
Yes. Tell us the dish, or show us the recipe on your phone, and we'll cut it to suit: from stewing chunks and roasting joints to karahi pieces, mince and thin slices for a stir-fry.
Do you sell pork?
No. All our meat is halal, so there's no pork. Beef mince makes great burgers and bolognese, and lamb is perfect for roasts and stews.
Can I order ahead?
Yes. For whole lambs, big quantities or a regular trade order, ask at the counter a day or two before you need it.
Can't find something?
Ask at the till. If it's not on the shelf, tell us what you're after.
