It’s the last weekend of autumn, and we’re leaning all the way into comfort food season!
- Fried brioche with blueberry cheesecake, blue berry compote, lavender syrup, mixed berries, aka a little sunshine on a plate
- Cannellini bean stew with bacon, duck sausage, poached eggs, garlic migas and aioli, aka a hug in a bowl
Autumn may be packing up, but comfort food is still very much on the menu !

SCAM ALERT
At Hardware Societe we advertise roles on recruitment platforms or on Instagram, we do not recruit through Australia Job Group on Facebook where we reach out to individuals seeking work. It’s been brought to our attention that someone by the name of Stephanie Mhiz is pretending to be employed by us and is recruiting for us.
SHE IS NOT AND DOES NOT REPRESENT OUR COMPANY IN ANY WAY.
The scam involves buying protective non slip shoes for a trial, there is no role and probably no shoes either so just block her or anyone that pretends to be us for that matter.
I’m sincerely sorry for anyone that has been duped by this bitch, and to those that reached out to fact check her, we are very grateful.
