Burrito Baby Menu

Folks

When I was in Berlin I went to this fantastic vegetarian burrito place, Baby Burrito. I've attached a picture of the menu, see what you think.

The nice thing is that the menu is modular, ie from a set number of ingredients, they can put together a variety of dishes.

Cashew cheese...yum!

Re: Fringey Stuff

Folks

I haven't heard much about promoting all this lovely stuff and if we're going to get people to perform at the Forest the least we can do is make sure they get a good crowd. Otherwise there's no point in putting all this stuff on.

What's happening?
