DR sale has had effect on quality
We have used Donald Russell for some years now and have recommended them to friends and family. Until recently we have always been delighted with items from this company. However, I was a little disappointed with some of the items in my most recent order. The cottage/cumberland/shepherds pies were in larger, but shallower trays, and not as tasty as previous versions. The pies in pastry were not as nice either. Sadly the Lamb Hot Pot Pies, which has been a favourite of ours is no longer available. Wondered why these things had changed, and did an internet search that revealed DR has been sold to The Vestry Group. I will not buy most of these items again, as they are no better than ordinary supermarket versions and are more expensive. Such a shame.
