FOOD & DR INK
Food gets social AS THE GRAFTON’S NEW FOOD CONCEPT COMES TO FRUITION, WE PAY A VISIT TO SOME OF THE CENTRE’S NEW EATERIES AND FIND OUT WHAT ELSE IS ON ITS WAY
Preparing to open its doors in the upstairs food court at The Grafton is independent brand The Duck Truck. A regular at festivals with its neon-lit vintage Airstream vans, the company plans to open in Cambridge before this month’s out. On the menu, you’ll find crispy duck wraps slathered in hoisin sauce, pulled duck brioche buns with Asian slaw, and confit duck leg and pomegranate salad. You can also build your own feast, tailoring the base, veg and sauce to accompany your crispy duck. The duck fat chips with rosemary rock salt sound well worth a try as well… THE DUCK TRUCK
THE BURGER PRIEST
Cambridge has more than its fair share of venues to get your gourmet patty fix and, as of this winter, there’ll be a new option to add into the mix. Opening on the first-floor food court at The Grafton, The Burger Priest offers high-quality burgers to your specification, as well as milkshakes, cocktails and more. Keith Fox, director at The Burger Priest, has over 33 years of experience in the food and beverage industry, and says The Grafton team’s ambition to grow its independent food offering is what particularly appealed about bringing his concept to the shopping centre. “When we began speaking about the opportunity to come to The Grafton, it was immediately clear the management team and Legal & General (the owners of the shopping centre) are very ambitious with planning to improve the independent food offering”, he explains. “It was an opportunity we couldn’t turn down. We pride ourselves on delivering good, honest burgers and have grown quickly over the last two years. The Burger Priest will bring something completely different to The Grafton and we can’t wait to spread our wings in Cambridge later in the year.”
