Private Birthday Dinner Party, David and Caroline (and Friends)

 

This weekend was a brilliant birthday celebration with fabulously fond friends, delicious and wonderful wines and  superbly phenominal food. Catering a surprise dinner party in Hursley was a huge pleasure for me, creating a gourmet tasting menu for a table of 8, dining in the comfort of their own home. Made to feel so very welcome, it was a succesful evening with a great atmosphere from start until finish. Another great evening and a delightful dinner party.
