Denhay Bacon - Heston Blumenthal chooses it for Little Chef
24th January 2009

Denhay Bacon has been chosen by one of the Country’s leading chefs as part of a trial being undertaken to re-vamp the menu for the Little Chef chain of restaurants.  Heston Blumenthal, who is famous for his ingenuity when it comes to food, tasted plenty of bacon before he decided on Denhay’s Wiltshire Cure for his trial menu at Little Chef.  Denhay’s Wiltshire Cure is a new addition to the Denhay bacon range and one which is proving popular with Little Chef customers at Popham Services on the A303 at Winchester.   

“It was amazing to see people eating Denhay bacon when I went to the opening day of the re-vamped Little Chef at Popham,” said Ellen Streatfeild, who is the daughter of George Streatfeild, MD of Denhay Farms.   “The Little Chef was serving great big Bacon Butties with two rashers of our Wiltshire Cure back bacon and three crispy rashers of streaky – so the bacon was really bursting out!  Not a skimpy little sandwich at all, but a proper job”.
    
As well as Popham Services, Denhay Bacon is now being served at Little Chefs in Gateshead and Scotch Corner and it is hoped that Denhay will be available more widely in Little Chefs around the UK soon.     

Denhay Bacon is available throughout the West Country from selected Tesco, Waitrose, Co-op, Budgens, good independent retailers, farm shops and delis.
