Andrew Sparsis, Neeru Kareer and Vicky Vaughan in Worthing International Birdman 2009
It’s nearly time for Worthing International Birdman 2010. Last year, you may remember that Andrew Sparsis, proprietor of Food and The Fish Factory restaurants in Worthing and Littlehampton, West Sussex, took part in Worthing International Birdman 2010 to help The Flying Doctors raise the grand total of £754.75 for Chestnut Tree House.
This year, Birdman is taking place on 14th and & 15th Aug 2010. Andrew is raising money for Western Sussex Hospital Charities. We can’t tell you what Andy is dressing up as yet as his flying outfit is currently being designed by the children on the wards of Worthing Hospital, St Richards Hospital in Chichester and Southlands hospital in Shoreham-by-sea.
We would like you to help us raise funds for this fantastic charity by sponsoring Andrew in his Birdman 2010 challenge. It’s very easy, go to: www.justgiving.com/AndySparsisflyfishfood and sponsor him.
A little bit about Western Sussex Hospitals Charities
The Western Sussex Hospitals NHS Trust are two acute general hospitals and one local general hospital serving the whole of West Sussex. Our sites are Worthing Hospital, St Richards Hospital in Chichester and Southlands hospital in Shoreham-by-sea. We are committed to providing excellent facilities for patients and staff but there’s always more that can be done, that’s why the Charity exists to ensure that patients receive the best and most modern treatment, that their stay is made as comfortable as possible, and that staff have the best working environment in order to provide first class patient care. Most wards in the hospitals have their own fund and donations from patients and visitors alike are always welcomed. The money will then be managed by the charitable trust to ensure that all donations are carefully recorded, thanked and invested until required. We run a range of fundraising initiatives from recycling to overseas events, organising events and skydives to the lottery and general fundraising. We support all of our fundraisers in their efforts and are always so grateful to anyone who can help us raise money for our hospitals. Please help us to help you “Love your Hospitals”.
Proto Restaurant Group are proud to be part of this worthwhile charity and we look forward to working with Western Sussex Hospital Charities as we certainly Love our Hospitals.

Proto World Cup Spoil Menu
It would be ‘Rooney’ not to announce the BRAND NEW World Cup edition of our world famous Spoil Menu which is available at The Fish Factory restaurants in both Worthing and Littlehampton, West Sussex. The line-up on our new Spoil menu is even more tasty than the England Team!
Would you rather have Ashley Cole or Fish Wellington? At least you know that you can love our Fish Wellington and it won’t be unfaithful to you, plus it contains a Dream-Team winning combination of Salmon, Cod and Haddock layered with cheese sauce and sliced potatoes, wrapped into pastry and roasted. Served with seasonal vegetables.
Then there is the delicious Lobster, Prawn and Scallop Fondue, which has a Swiss flavour. How can you not resist Melted Swiss cheese sauce served with warm prime pieces of lobster, prawn & scallop meat and potato croutons. John Terry would love this, but he’d better be careful who he shares it with! Actually, our customers say this fondue dish is far too good to share and they want it all to themselves – therefore, this fondue has been carefully created to feed one mouth only!
Other dishes include Soup De Poisson’s (France), Sagnaki (Greece), Brushetta con Ancoveys e Funghi (Italy), Peppered Butter Fish and Beef Burger Patties. Yum! We wonder what country will win your choice in our very own World cup? Phone us now to book a table!

Mayor's Greek Party on Monday 10th May 2010
Hurry up to get the last remaining tickets for the Mayor’s Greek night on 10th May at Food restaurant in Worthing, West Sussex. Tickets are priced at £35, so call 01903 227780 to buy your tickets now.

There will also be a raffle, an auction, and of course the Splash FM disco til late.
Did you know?
Ancient Greeks believed that dancing was invented by the Gods and therefore they had associated it with their religious and worshipping ceremonies. The Greeks believed that the Gods offered the gift of dance to select humans only, who in turn taught dancing to their friends. So now’s the time for us to see if you were first in the queue when God was offering his gift of dance.
Fancy having a go at Greek Dancing? Come and join in on 10th May.
