‘Come Dine With Us’ 

Host dinner parties like the professionals with a Spooners Cooking Demonstration Preparation and Presentation courses available
from February 2009.

 

Like most of us you’ve probably watched in awe whilst the likes of Nigella whips up a five course feast for friends, you may even have tried your hand at one or two of the recipes but with the help of Spooners you’ll be able to host the party like a pro.

 

From table presentation and floral decoration, to timings, seating plans and menu planning, you’ll even be taught how to serve from that rather hot and heavy serving tray with grace.

 

The courses are designed to be small and intimate ensuring you squeeze every last drop of knowledge from experienced hosts Martin and Susan Spooner, owners for 24 years of their own excellent restaurant in Milton Keynes.

 

“DIY is the key, enjoyment and learning are the objectives of our newly launched ‘Restaurant Skills workshops” said Martin Spooner.   He goes on to say “We’re really so excited about offering these workshops and sharing our experience and knowledge with people who really do want to put on a dinner party with the WOW factor!”

 

The courses will be held in Christchurch, running from 10.00am - 3.30pm with lunch included.

 

The day starts with a relaxing cup of coffee and a fun introduction to service, hosting etiquette and an insight into the skills of the restaurateur and chef. Guests then choose their menu and enjoy an interactive demonstration from the kitchen and dining room with training on food presentation, wine service and menu selection.

 

After lunch with an obligatory glass of wine (all in the name of training of course!), guests move onto the dessert course and floral presentation, finishing off with a question and answer session over tea.

 

“The courses are designed with the enthusiastic amateur in mind but also provide a great introduction to those wishing to enter the catering and hospitality industry” said Susan, “Guests will benefit from our 24 years of hard earned knowledge and leave fully confident to host heavenly dinner parties like the pro’s.”

Susan goes on to say “We’ve had a number of people show interest in our ‘Restaurant Skills’ workshops, so we’re really looking forward to welcoming clients to show them how its done.”

 

Courses cost just £65pp including all ingredients for the day, lunch, wine, coffee, tea and goody bag! To book your place or find out more contact Martin or Susan on 01202 830036 / info@spoonersltd.co.uk or visit the website:   www.spoonersltd.co.uk
