“We are crepe” Pancake Party Tuesday 20th February

From Patagonian beef chilli to flash fried Indonesian vegetable crepes, BISC taste buds were once again assaulted with a new and delightful range of flavours and aromas, courtesy of the “We are Crepe” pancake party team from Holy Trinity Church, Nailsea.

Diners started to arrive in the early evening. The menu promised a veritable “cornucopia of culinary delights” and we were far from disappointed. The Holy Trinity team worked slavishly over steaming hot French griddle pans to produce nearly one hundred pancakes for the grateful hordes. Click here to view the photos.

Jonny Herring from Bristol University Christian Union gave a thought provoking talk about the origins of why we celebrate Pancake Day and how countries across the world celebrate.

All in all a great night in. Many thanks to the Holy Trinity team. The question is, will people be giving up sweet things for lent? ….we do hope not. Cream Teas continue on Mondays until the end of term
