Events

The current warm weather lends itself beautifully to outdoor cooking.  As a nation we all love a good barbie and these days, for our mental well being, we’re all encouraged to spend more time in the great outdoors.

It’s blooming lucky we live in such a fab area that lends itself to cooking outdoors. Recently, in collaboration with Red Bull, we went along to Surrey Hills Yurts for some Al Fresco cooking and a few beers.

The event itself was for the Red Bull marketing department who had requested an ‘outdoor cooking experience’. Surrey Hills Yurts based in the Mole Valley between Ranmore Common and Leith Hill provide both venue and ambience.  Anyone who knows the area will know the spectacular views afforded by both hills.

It was not only the views that were captivating, the open space provides a safe venue for outdoor activities. Guests enjoyed archery and axe throwing before settling down to dinner. David came into work the next day with his head still attached, reassuring us he ducked under all the flying objects 😉

On the menu was chargrilled asparagus with lemon aioli; cumin flatbreads; a spring broth with tenderloin of pork and a Four Gables special banoffee pie cooked in the embers.  Eaten like an banquet around the fire, it was delicious.

If this is something that sounds like fun for your event or team building day then give us a call.

Last weekend gave us a cheeky hint of how fabulous summer can be in England.  And nothing says summer more than a garden party.

There are lots of benefits of organising a garden party.  Delicious food, favourite cocktails and great company, all in the comfort of your own home.  No stressing over time restrictions or limited food choices.  You are free to pick and choose your food and drink menus and have whatever you fancy.

Whatever the occasion, you can have lots of fun dreaming up a theme for your party.  Tied with  endless possibilities for entertainment, you can organise an event your friends will remember for years to come.

Four Gables Food covers all aspects of garden party organisation.  We love to be innovative and customer focused and can help you every step of the way.  Whatever the size or occasion, we can take your vision and create something truly special.

We’ve taken some time to pull some ideas together as a starting point.  Click here for Garden Party ideas.  That said, we are not fans of menu A, B & C and could not think of anything worse than churning out the same stuff over and over.  So, come and join us for a chat in the office with a glass of wine and let’s get excited about your event!
