For what has been a summer of unpredictable weather, the team were excited to cater this exceptional event on the hottest weekend of the year. As the sun shone down, we set about creating a memorable birthday dinner for our client.
Guests were greeted by a Cuban band whilst they enjoyed Mojitos, Summer Spritz and Champagne on the terrace, accompanied by some delicious Cuban inspired canapés.
They were then called to be seated for dinner, where a stunning Mediterranean tablescape had been created. Using pops of bold colour and pattern, along with more muted rattan and wooden tones, this tablescape perfectly complimented the hot Summer’s evening.
The menu was designed by Angela Hartnett and on the evening she was there to deliver the 5 incredible courses. Each course was paired with a wine which included a fantastic Californian Pinot Noir and a wonderful French Sancerre. The food was kept fresh and light, showcasing our brilliant produce and included a starter of Sea bream crudo, orange, fennel and samphire and a main course of Roasted beef fillet, scorched onions, and pommes anna.
After dinner the cocktail bar opened and guests enjoyed a choice of a Smoked Old Fashioned or a Salted Caramel Espresso Martini, the perfect after dinner tipples! We loved the opportunity to get creative with this brief and deliver an unforgettable dining experience, and working alongside the team at Peppermint Diva made the whole experience truly magical.
