We dream of discoveries and travel but with the TARA range, there is no need to travel widely to experience flavours from the four corners of the earth! Whether eaten with an aperitif, as a starter or as a special main course in a meal among friends, TARA dishes combine the flavours and subtle perfumes found in the traditional cooking of Asia, North Africa, Mexico, India and the West Indies.
For example, with delicious pork nems (pancake rolls), you can discover China or Viet Nam. Travel to the West Indies and taste salt cod bites accompanied by a tea punch (to be consumed in moderation !)
TARA, 'the World Caterer' offers you an incredible journey across 5 continents and invites you to sample the culinary delights of the world.
In CHINA, eating is not merely a daily act of necessity but more a philosophy which harmonises textures and flavours.

In VIET NAM, cooking is fine, light and varied. It is noted for its use of fresh products, cooked in the least fat possible, and is based on plain white rice accompanied by vegetables, meat, fish, spices and sauces. Everyone eats in the street and to eat your soup among the passers-by is to immerse yourself in Vietnamese culture !
The Creole tradition of the WEST INDIES and REUNION is an amalgamation of cultures - French, African, Asian and Indian. There, every festival is an excuse to share a good meal and in Reunion, in particular, the Sunday picnic is a national institution.
INDIA is a country of 100 nations and 100 dialects, a thousand religions and two thousand gods ! The same goes for its cuisine - there is no uniform culinary style or national dish, but an astonishing diversity of preparations and ingredients. Mixes of spices play a huge role and, to lighten the heavier dishes, a digestible, acidic base is often used - of tomato, vinegar or lemon.
To speak of MEXICAN cuisine is to retrace steps back beyond the Spanish colonisation - perhaps as far as 700 BC! Across these civilisations, tortillas, chilli con carne and chocolate were developed : the spicy food was well adapted to the country since it made one sweat, eliminating poisons and repelling mosquitoes !
