Christmas Banquet Challenge

This is a Recipe Challenge with a difference! Bring your team together to create a shared Christmas Banquet for you all to enjoy!

Your group will break into teams and cook up to four different recipes to produce a delicious festive lunch or dinner. Then take off your aprons, pull up a seat at our long tables, relax and enjoy the fruits of your labours.

Our Christmas Banquet could be just the thing you need, if your team needs more guidance. All the competitive challenge of a Social Cooking event, all the fun and time pressure, but following a series of seasonal recipes to produce a delectable Christmas feast.

Start by choosing a range of delicious festive recipes from our recommended selection, or make your own suggestions. We can theme this event to suit you. Christmas Banquets are for groups of 20 or more guests.
