Give the gift of food this Valentines with a sweet treat from Belfast\u2019s homemade food delivery service, Dished Up Deli, with their \u2018Love In A Box\u2019 Valentines range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Made to order and delivered straight to your door, the collection includes a decadent chocolate brownie box and a belgian chocolate geometric heart filled with a choice of rose water sponge or chocolate brownie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Founder of the food delivery company which was started over the first lockdown, Philip Davison, believed there is an emphasis on buying personalised and thoughtful gifts this year due to Brexit\u2019s influence on Northern Ireland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019ve seen a definite rise in consumer demand for personalised gifts instead of the typical off the shelf items especially due to Brexit, we are now shopping more locally and supporting local businesses like myself who have the capacity to offer customisable gifts,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Philip has also created an at home Valentines meal menu for those wanting to bring the restaurant to their living rooms this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The luxury four course \u2018Heat at Home\u2019 meal for two features a colourful chorizo salad, mouthwatering slow cooked beef, fresh meringues and a cheese board with crackers and chutneys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Due to the ongoing Covid-19 restrictions on hospitality, Philip recognised the demand to create an at-home dining experience for couples to still celebrate the most romantic day of the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThere has been an increase in people renovating their homes over lockdown and creating a nicer environment to relax and enjoy a romantic meal in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis year due to Covid, restaurants will also be working at less capacity so trying to secure a  booking over the Valentines weekend will be much more competitive\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After sharing images of food he made throughout lockdown, hospitality management graduate Philip decided to make the leap and complete requests from family and friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since then, his business has expanded to offering rotating weekly menus, savoury and sweet snacks which are based around quality homemade cooking paired with innovation to match the needs of the seasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOver the several lockdowns I shared pictures of some creation on Facebook and got slightly hounded,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 \u201cI finally got a call saying would you make that dinner for me and my friend and that is how Dished up Deli was born.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Orders received by 6pm on Wednesday 9 February will be delivered on Friday 11 February between 5-8pm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
