Über die Veranstaltung
Discover the culinary charm of the Regency era in this hands-on cooking and menu planning workshop, where history and hospitality come deliciously to life. In a time when dinner parties were a key expression of social grace and domestic accomplishment, the art of constructing a well-balanced menu was just as important as the cooking itself. From soups to syllabubs, every course reflected thought, seasonality, and status.
Under expert guidance, guests will delve into the traditions of the Regency table—learning how to curate menus inspired by authentic period sources and preparing select dishes using historical techniques adapted for modern ease. Expect to explore the flavors, customs, and etiquette that defined upper-class dining during Jane Austen's time.
