As we step into August, we find ourselves in the final stretch of summer, a month brimming with warmth, vibrant life, and abundant harvests. Beaches are overflowing with holidaymakers and locals eager to embrace the last rays of the summer sun.
August is a time of transition. The heat of summer is still lingering, but hints of the upcoming autumn season are starting to appear. With its hot, sunny days and warm, mild evenings, the final ‘dog days of summer’ peter out to make way for cooler temperatures.
Gardens are bursting with produce that thrives in the late summer sun. Vine-ripened tomatoes are at their juiciest and most flavourful, alongside dark, rich aubergine and fresh green okra.
August is a prime month for enjoying a diverse array of seafood freshly caught from the UK’s coastal waters. Succulent sea bass, with its delicate, sweet flavour and rich, oily mackerel, pair perfectly with seasonal salads and vegetables.
Our unwavering commitment to sustainability ensures that every seafood dish at Faber is ethically sourced, supporting the health of marine ecosystems and providing you with a dining experience you can feel reassured and supportive of.
