Ready Steady Cook
Just to prove to you we can be spontaneous and exciting we are putting on our own version of the TV show - Ready Steady Cook. Ian and Philippa between them will produce as many dishes based around a few ingredients that you will choose.
We will ask the first 5 who book for this event to bring in some surprise ingredients (what you spend will of course be reimbursed). We will have basic store cupboard ingredients, but will not know until you arrive what those items are.
Prepare for some fun and games, and hopefully some interesting tastings followed by the usual delicious lunch.
