Have you noticed the growing trend of having food served on anything except a plate. The latest craze sees food served on slates, wooden boards and even buckets.

Some of the pictures show chips served in mini shopping trolleys, bread rolls in a flat cap and even a cooked breakfast served on a shovel.
