If you’re bored of bland (3 course turkey) set menus and packed restaurants why not bring your team along to The Cooking Academy? With the help of our expert chefs, you could be cooking your own delicious Christmas banquet! The fun begins with Bubbly and Canapes on arrival at any of our locations throughout London, Hertfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Luton and Reading (but not limited to), followed by a ‘Ready, Steady, Cook’ challenge in which your team will be tasked to cook and serve the best Christmas banquet to a five star standard! Choose from a Christmas themed menu or tear up the rule book and select from our long list of cuisines, from Thai to Mediterranean to Spanish Tapas, the possibilities are endless! Finally there is something magical about coming together to enjoy the fruits of your team’s labour with a drink (or two, it is Christmas after all!), or even enjoy your own homemade Mulled Wine with dinner! If you would like more information on organising a Christmas party your team will never forget then please give us a call on 01923 778880.
