Home-made popularity grounded in hunger for comfort food

SPAR Woombye Manager Sammy Boxell ... “I am incredibly fortunate to have a wonderful team to work with.”

THE evenings are getting cooler and we are all having to adjust to life in isolation.

But every cloud has a silver lining and the good news is Paul Dolan of Grounded@Woombye is offering home-made style meals for take away and home delivery.

“As the situation with lockdown intensified, we noticed that people still wanted to buy our meals to take home and enjoy,” said Paul. 

“Often they would tell us it was because they didn’t really cook for themselves!” 

In collaboration with his chef Sam Leishman, they have pulled together a menu of tasty offerings that are the ultimate in healthy, nourishing comfort foods. “I was actually racking my brains remembering the types of meals my grandmother used to make, because they were so good,” said Sam. 

“We decided that we were probably on a winner with simple, flavour packed dishes like hearty beef stew, chicken noodle soup, apricot chicken and curries.”

And their loyal, regular customers agree. 

“We feel so happy and grateful that people have shown us such support, and are enjoying our food,” Paul said.

“So much so, that after lock down is over, we will continue to offer this service.”

You can find Grounded’s menu on their website woombye.net, or by checking their Facebook page, Instagram, or going old school, and calling them on 0427 442 324.
