The Winter solstice marks the mid-point of winter and brings the promise of lighter days and new beginnings. Traditionally, large gatherings of people joined together to welcome the new season. In honour of this tradition, we’re hosting our own lavish midwinter feast with rich, hearty food, local wines and craft beer!

The night will begin grazing on shared charcuteries of cured and smoked meats, pâtés and chutneys. Next the serious feasting begins on oven roasted and flame-cooked, succulent, smoky meats on the bone, alongside crisp chargrilled vegetables and freshly baked ancient breads. The feast will conclude with rich apple and fig pie, local cheeses matched with our own rooftop honey and dried nuts and fruits.

Not only will you feast, but you’ll also learn, as the evening takes you on an epic culinary adventure from farm – to plate – to glass.

• The Butcher will introduce you to the art of selecting and buying the best meat cuts
• The Head Chef will show you the secrets to a perfectly seared steak
• The Winemaker will delight you with tales of food and wine matching
• The Craft Brewer will take you through the history and magic of the brewing process

For those who love meat that melts in your mouth and falls off the bone, who love trying new twists on old techniques and just plain, good hearty eating – this is the ultimate dinner.

So join us for an evening of fervent winter grazing, just bring a healthy appetite and a desire to learn!
