AFTER THE SHOW – CLEANDOWN & CHILL
The kitchen’s closed, the pans are cooling, and the team’s running on fumes and flat whites. This is what happens after the last plate leaves the pass — cleandown, tunes on, laughs, and maybe a sneaky Yorkshire pud if there’s one left.

Take a look behind the scenes of the Café Matteo chaos — the chill bit, anyway.

Like, subscribe, and stick around. The show might be over, but the madness never really ends.

To everyone who rolled in today and absolutely obliterated our roast menu — we love you more than gravy loves a Yorkshire pud.

The roast lamb was the star, but let’s be honest… that MASSIVE Yorkshire pudding stole the damn show. Some say it was big enough to be used as a hat. Others tried. We don’t judge.

Thank you for the support, the empty plates, and the aggressive nods of approval. Roasts will return — and so will the elastic waistbands.
