Dr Mel's Place

Summer Brunch Tea - instead of the traditional afternoon tea, I took inspiration from brunch for our menu items today. This was my first time making gluten free crepes and both savory and sweet were super delicious! The gazpacho recipe was the inspiration for this summer brunch theme and was a favorite amongst the bites! 😋😋

These tea events are examples of what is available for private event bookings at Dr Mel’s Place. Do you have a group who’d like to get together for a meal but not everyone can eat a traditional menu? I specialize in working with alternative ingredients for those with food restrictions. This menu was completely lactose free, gluten free, no refined sugars, and pescatarian. Sky is the limit, I am happy to work with any dietary needs.

Tonight, I did a thing. I finally got together with my AV guy to do a recording of a sound bath. Coming soon, I’ll be posting this video to YouTube so you can have a sample of sound therapy. This is just the start of coming videos demonstrating the different services and offerings I provide. Stay tuned!

This is Oz. He is here ready to welcome you to your manual therapy session… and would even love to cuddle you during. ☺️

Open house anniversary event was a success! Here is a peak at the food bar. Lots of yummies all made from scratch. The weather held up pretty well so there was a little bit of sitting outside.

I did sample demos of each my three offerings: 1) a quick GF naan bread on the stove, 2) how I palpate the liver through the different layers of tissue, 3) the sound of the ocean drum.

There were also 6 winners that received discount coupons for different offerings. Congrats to those who won!

All to say, I cannot believe I’ve been at my home office for a year now and I can’t wait to see what the next year brings! 🥹🙏🥰🫶😎

They really turn green inside! 💚🍀

Paleo Irish Soda Bread and naturally green inside St Patty’s Day cookies… are you ready for March 17th with your food restrictions??

The Winter Tea was a beautiful success. I had so much fun sharing this theme as a personal passion of mine to make all this food from scratch so that those with food restrictions can eat it all. One of my guests was squealing with delight as she cannot eat any dairy or gluten but could eat everything I served her. 🥰🥹

Delicious foods for everyone and a lovely time together. 🍥🥮🥪🍓🍎

Did you miss out?? The Spring Tea date is now set for May 17th! Reserve your table today. Pinkies up! Bow ties and fascinators optional. 🍵🌸

Yesterday’s SOUND BATH included a snack of paleo mini Irish Soda Bread with homemade ghee. A morning that was delicious for the mind, body, and soul. 🎶✨🌈🧘🏻‍♀️🥣
