Miffins

Miffins • noun • a sluggy bastardisation of the word “mini muffins”

Miffins come in blueberry, banana, and dark chocolate. They can be individually wrapped, or packed in couplets or fours in a box. Actually they can be packed any way you like.

Good for baby showers, office parties, conferences, door gifts, birthday parties, staff/customer appreciation gifts etc.

Best part about the miffins? Fully-customisable icing logos on top! Best part about the icing logos? They’re edible! Nyem nyem.

Valentine’s Day Menu 2010

Valentine's Day Menu 2010

Our theme this year will be a Spring menu, as Valentine’s day falls on the same day as the lunar new year which happens to be symbolic for renewal and as the returning of spring.

Typically Spring menus are bright, zesty, light and colourful. Fruits and herbs are also used in abundance. The focus is on quality produce with minimal rich sauces.

This year we will have smooth & light entertainment with Nathan on vocals & guitar 8pm-8.45pm

The dining area will be kept private, lights romantically dimmed & you will dine with your loved one by candlelight.

Reservations:
Friday Night 12th February 2010
6pm/ 7pm/ 8pm/ 9pm
call 6346-0504 or e-mail justask@thegardenslug.com
