Booming London food business buys six others, expands office

I can't fucking stand Nick Spina as a person, but I need to defend his company here, cause I think you're spewing BS.

I'll apologize if I'm wrong, so please point me to anywhere that they claim they keep food above 60C for 72 hours...

They seem to ask for orders to be placed by 9pm, three days before the delivery date, and I suspect that's where you're getting the 72 hours from, which is fine. But in reality, the meals are probably made a day or two before delivery, so 72 hours is an extreme. But I'm much more interested in you pointing to 60C as the temperature they hold them at. Your comment has been well received, so I think it's caught the attention of a lot of people, and it's probably because this aspect of it is so incredulous. There's no way in hell they are keeping these meals at that temperature between the time they cook them and when they deliver them. The food would be disgusting, probably inedible. I absolutely guarantee they are refrigerating the meals after they are prepared. Keeping them warm would ruin them, and serve no purpose. Even if they could keep them warm for days without ruining the meal entirely, the moment they are delivered, people are putting them in their fridge/freezer, until they're ready to eat them, so why bother keeping them warm? You keep things warm when they're going to be eaten within minutes, not hours or days.

It makes no sense at all, and I'm dubious of your claim that they say this.

Happy to be proven wrong, cause it would another thing about Spina I could laugh about, but I think this is your claim, not his.
