The one day dinner party course is the ideal opportunity to gather some great tips from the professionals to create the perfect dinner party. Students are shown fabulous techniques, making the role of host appear seamless.
The recipes are well within the competence of the home cook and are all imbued with Raymond Blanc's own extraordinary personality and flair.
The setting up and preparation for a delicious three-course dinner party will enable you to get ahead of time allowing you the opportunity to relax with your guests.
Recipes include a range of seasonal starters and main courses and, if desserts are your biggest challenge, during the afternoon, you will be guided through the preparation of some classic dessert dishes and accompaniments. Each recipe adapts a range of techniques used by the professional chefs in Le Manoir's kitchen.
This one day course is inclusive of a days tuition, morning and afternoon tea and informal lunch in the cookery school. A typical itinerary commences with the morning session starting at 9am (please check in at 8.45am). After lunch the course recommences at 1.20pm until afternoon tea at 4.30pm when course certificates are presented and the day comes to a close.
The course even considers helpful tips to bring you back on track, should your preparations not go according to plan.
