Thursday 30 April | Live Cookery Evening and Dinner: The Effortless Spring Table (Sherborne)

£70.00

A Live Cookery Evening & Shared Dinner
Thursday 30 April | 5.30–8.30pm | Studio Sherborne, Unit 15, The Old Yarn Mills, Sherborne DT9 3RQ

Spring deserves an unforgettable evening table.

This is a relaxed, atmospheric cookery evening — where you gather round, watch, ask questions, and then sit down to eat a generous feast together.

It’s for anyone who loves the idea of hosting… but sometimes finds it overwhelming.

Too many dishes.
Too much timing.
Not enough new ideas.

During this live cookery evening, I’ll show you how to:

• Create sharing plates that feel abundant but unfussy
• Get a gentle “wow” from the moment guests sit down
• Build colour, texture and flavour into simple seasonal dishes
• Shape a menu that caters to varied dietary needs without doubling your workload
• Make THE salad dressing that people still talk about the next day
• Host without stress or last-minute drama

You won’t need to lift a finger, here — instead, you’ll gather round the table as I demonstrate each element, talk through the thinking behind it, and share practical, usable principles you can take home and use.

And then we’ll sit down and enjoy the full menu together.

The Menu

Bubbly focaccia with mosaic butter
Whipped feta, caramelised heritage beetroot, spring gremolata
Queen butter bean & spring vegetable tagine with preserved lemon, dates and olives
Za’atar roasted chicken, pomegranate molasses and labneh
Jewelled grains
Swoon-worthy seasonal salad plate
Vanilla panna cotta, roasted strawberries, white balsamic

This is a relaxed evening out with purpose — part inspiration, part learning, part dinner party (without you doing the washing up).

£70 per guest

Includes live cookery demonstration, full shared dinner with wine and practical hosting principles to take home.
