Island Caterers have teamed up with Ta’ Frenċ restaurant in Gozo to add the island to its list of prestigious venues.

Ta’ Frenċ Restaurant is set in an authentic old farmhouse surrounded by the beautiful country views of Xagħra, Żebbuġ and Marsalforn valley.

On entering the courtyard, one can see the herb garden used by the kitchen brigade. Other products used at Ta’ Frenċ are bread baked in-house, sun-dried salt from the salt pans in Xwejni and pure Gozitan honey.

The restaurant’s owners made a considerable investment in olive trees. Imported from Sicily, the trees are found in a new grove close to the restaurant.

Ta’ Frenċ restaurant’s walls are adorned with works of art by local artists and a collection of traditional Maltese clocks. A collection of decanters are displayed in niches on the walls.

An extensive and award-winning range of wines is kept in a cellar, which is available for private dining. The latest innovation is house champagne bottled especially for the restaurant by Boizel.

Ino Attard, who operates Ta’ Frenċ restaurant, said: “We are happy to have this new working relationship and collaboration with Island Caterers. It will surely help to create more business and pave the way to new opportunities for Ta’ Frenċ.”

Island Caterers chief operating officer Raphael Cauchi said: “The owners and management team of Ta’ Frenċ have a similar work ethic to ours and we are very much looking forward to working closely with them and building on the excellent results achieved to date.”
