“One of our app partners, East Kilbride Eats, came up with the idea, wanting one of the chip shops on their app to take on the challenge of battering Colin and getting on the Save Cuthbert promotion.

Mango and passionfruit baked cheesecake from the Cheesecake Guy, the Shambles. FOODIES in York can now find authentic New York baked cheesecake delights on the Shambles, inspired by a tried and tested family recipe. Matt Kaplan remembers the days when his grandfather, who ran his own bakery - Sherry s - on 110th and Broadway in the Big Apple, would bring home boxes of delicious treats. After Sherry s closed, the recipe simply became a treat loved by the family as his dad and uncle took a different career path. Years later Matt whipped up a baked cheesecake for a pot luck at work and it was so popular that he decided to leave his job as an airbrush painter and follow in his granddad s footsteps.
