Tatton Park is about to deck its halls with the giant holiday makeover that’s known as The Foodies Festival. Think bake-offs, booze and plenty of Crimbo cheer.
Yup, it’s already that time of year, and from November 17 to November 19 you’ll get the chance to take home recipes and top tips from MasterChef winners, Great British Menu stars and top local chefs who will be cooking up their festive favourites in the Chef’s Theatre.
For those of you who can’t stand soggy bottoms and think you can give Mary Berry a run for her money, why not pop down to see some of your favourite Great British Bake Off winners and top patisserie chefs bake up show-stopping cakes and treats in the Cakes and Desserts Theatre. You might learn a thing or two about how to get the perfect rise out of your next Victoria sponge.
If you’re more into vintage tea, there’s plenty of that to go round and, if you want to perfect your Christmas hosting skills, there’s a class for that too.
Here’s what you can expect if you head down to the Foodies Festival at Tatton Park.
