SIMPLY Classics may not be in the most typical of locations for a bistro.

But having a postal address in Padiham’s Shuttleworth Mead Business Park has not taken it off the boil.

The company has catered for numerous royal visits and recently put on food for the Burnley FC homecoming celebrations following the team’s Wembley success.

Now the restaurant is branching out into Saturday night dining with a whole new menu. Head chef Chris Burt has shared one of his favourite recipes from the evening selection for our readers to try at home.
