Hi and happy new year from Cookie.

Now we are over the Christmas and New Year rush and beginning the New Year. I am finally finding the time to get the other parts of the Cookie Idea off the ground and wanted to let the Strathbungo community know about them.

We will be opening the grocery section of our shop and hope to offer a selection of quality fruit and veg for sale. I have been approached by the Southside Food share to potentially hold their veg boxes and we would like to extend this idea to the residents of Strathbungo as a whole.

We believe in collective buying, it promotes community activity and makes quality products more affordable. Supports local activities and its economy.

We can offer this service also for olive oil and wine and we are olive oil producers and direct importers for wine from small producers.

We hope that people will be interested in this alternative form of supply and commerce.

Our cooking club will be held every Monday night and also potentially Sunday. Cookie on these nights is no longer a restaurant shop but becomes a club for those interested in eating and cooking collectively. This is motivated by our interest in community integration development.

The cooking club offer the opportunity for people to share their family traditions through one of its binding elements..food. It allows people to share and develop their knowledge. Even if you don’t know how to cook an egg you can come along and learn by association in a relaxed atmosphere.
