 Cantina Laredo will be bringing a Mexican fiesta to the courtyard with a pop-up cocktail bar serving two thousand complimentary ‘Lime Paloma’ El Jimador tequila cocktails.  For a hands-on experience there will be demonstrations in making Cantina Laredo’s ‘Top Shelf’ guacamole as well as tastings of signature dishes including the hot and spicy salsas and sizzling Mexican brownies.  To add to the party atmosphere a Mexican mariachi band will be performing.  Casa Rita margaritas will be half price all day for diners in the restaurant.

 

English cream teas will be served from Bill’s market barrow as well as strawberries with lashings of cream.  There will be free cucumber finger sandwiches for all to be enjoyed whilst reclining in one of Bill’s deckchairs and listening to the jubilant sounds of a big brass band.  Bill’s jams, marmalades and chutneys will be on sale in his little corner of England.

Recreating Bangkok’s famous street food, Suda will be cooking up a variety of delicious regional Thai dishes such as satay, Pandan wraps, Thai fishcakes and papaya salad.  Guests can also enjoy performances by traditional Thai dancers and puppeteers.  Children will love watching animals crafted from sugar.  A street food tasting menu has been exclusively created and will be served in the restaurant.

Wine lovers should visit enoteca Dalla Terra for Italian wine tasting.  Mini master classes will include a tasting of three wines plus some fine Italian cheeses and cold meats, for £10 per person.  For a more in-depth experience, a one hour wine tasting seminar will be hosted in the restaurant at 3.30pm by one of Dalla Terra’s wine experts, giving an introduction to a selection of red and white wines, matched with unique cheeses and cold meats for £20 per person.
