Promoted: QUORN’S CHIQIN SUPPER CLUB

Held at Manchester Union Brewery, Manchester’s first and only dedicated craft lager brewery, operators in the city were invited to try Quorn’s new chicken concept and two new products for hospitality customers. 

ChiQin includes the brand’s first wings products, Quorn Buffalo Wings (ve) and Quorn Southern Fried Wings (ve), which join the Buttermilk Style Chicken Burger (ve) and went down a storm at this week’s event. 

Operators also enjoyed a demo from Chantelle Nicholson, renowned plant-based chef food, a beer pairing talk with Will Evans of Manchester Union Brewery, all hosted by HITS Radio DJ, Hattie Pearson.

The event was supported by Rubies in the Rubble, a condiment brand that shares Quorn’s sustainability values and is made using ingredients that would have otherwise gone to waste.

Claire Roper, Head of Marketing & Innovation Foodservice said: “We know we have the best meat free chicken on the market and we’re proud of it. We continually invest in research, both sensory and technical, to make sure we have the best taste, the best flavour and the best texture.

“The ChiQin concept is designed specifically for our casual dining customers, to highlight how Quorn can cater to those diners looking for comforting, messy, on trend builds on the menu.

“Chicken is a staple on every menu and diners are increasingly expecting to see meat free options on the menu, whether they follow a meat free diet or not.”
