    Ethical? Really?
    Current
    Alongside the hand harvested workers co-operative fava beans and the love spun biodegradable shopping bags, which are probably sourced from the recycled yarn of tibetian monks winter jackets lies a dirtier secret; coca cola, bacardi rum and fairy liquid don't score so highly on my ethical barometer and you might ask the same question. What are these things doing here?
    A good run of earth friendly stuff is at odds with these inclusions and the dubious selection of ancient veg doesn't help to enamour one to the place.
    But it is around the corner and it is trying its best.
