To Dine For
| Q | We're having an informal wedding and would love to wow our guests with a tasty menu. What do you suggest? |
| A | Richard Hingston says: Food doesn't have to be pretentious; it must taste good and leave everyone feeling great. While creating menus for all types of weddings and foodies alike over the last 20 years, there's always one requirement − high-quality, tasty food. We recently had a relaxed but trendy wedding with a fantastic menu. On arrival, bespoke bride and groom cocktails were served with canapés of mini-Yorkshire puddings with beef and horseradish filling, prawn and chorizo bruschetta, and mini-smoked salmon and dill bagels. For day guests, a mezze grazing table treated loved ones to a tailored selection of local, quality produce. Evening guests were offered a tapas-style 'food court' with a variety of foods, such as various paellas, gourmet burgers, woodfired stone-baked pizzas, 10-hour slow-cooked pulled pork baps and chicken stir-fry noodles, which can accommodate all dietary requirements. Finally, a cocktail bar made the special day end on the highest note, with in-house creations seeing the couple devising their signature cocktails to be enjoyed by all! Our aim is to create happy memories by sharing good food and good company. We always succeed in creating smiles |
