Christmas foodie events to book in London
Christmas is synonymous with food and feasting, but who wants to start the crackers and turkey too soon? We'd rather be making snaps, taking saunas, getting all pre-Revolutionary Russian with, or skating on top of a carpark with fondue at the ready. Here's our guide to where to have the most luxe and unusual festive foodie fun without the t-word (unless it is tikka style).
Snaps & Rye
After a new tipple for Christmas? Co-owner Snaps & Rye Kell Skött knows a thing or two about snaps. So much so that he has started his own snaps brand “Lovløs” (“lawless”) with flavours including smoked rye bread and rose and cucumber. He is now running snaps masterclasses, divulging the secrets of snaps making, foraging and drinking (yes, there is a special way of doing that!). AND there's the chance to have a bash and take home a jar of bespoke snaps.
The Snaps Master Class is available to book for groups of 12 to 20 people in the restaurant at £60 per person including plentiful Danish open sandwiches. Kell will happily play snaps at a location of your choice too.
To book: contact Jacqueline Skött 020 8964 3004 or eat@snapsandrye.com
The restaurant is serving unusual Xmas feasts too with snaps cured salmon, herrings, roast pork, LOADS of crackling, red cabbage & caramelised brown potatoes plus clementine and cloudberry trifle.
