We spend so much time getting to know you. It's only fair you get to know us too!
With that in mind (and because it's Christmas) we have a special double interview for this month's blog - talking to the top ladies at escabeche.
First off, we've got Ness!
1. Tell us what you do at baresca/escabeche?
I am the General Manager at escabeche, working with heart & soul.
2. What is your favourite dish on the menu?
Tiger prawns with sugar snap peas, honey & chilli. That may change, though, as I’m working through the new menu to discover a new favourite.
3. If you were stranded on a desert island and could only take three things with you, what would they be and why?
- Swiss knife, has various tools and blades on it which would become very useful
- Sunglasses, I literally can’t live without them. I wear them whenever I can.
- David Attenborough, to keep me company as he would be so interesting to talk to about his travels & the planet, and ultimately would kill the boredom!

Tom Gaebel “It’s a good life”

I love a good old classic sangria
