Cooking Together: a fresh take on dining out – included in Manchester Confidential’s Top 10 Manchester Pop Ups & Supper Clubs!

Ditch the conventional restaurant meal and have fun with your partner or friends. Become chefs for the evening, chopping, slicing, squeezing and peeling to create a restaurant-inspired meal which you’ll enjoy eating in the company of others.

Our Cooking Together events are as much about chatting and relaxing as they are about learning and eating. The evening is led by Chef sharing his knowledge and love of food, offering a sprinkling of tips and tricks along the way. The evening is topped off with appetizing ways to present your dishes so you can take Instagram-worthy foodie photos of the fruits of your labour!

Cooking Together nights can be exclusive for groups of ten or more – if you have something in mind, get in touch.

What you will Learn

Chef will demonstrate a first course for you to recreate in your pairs and then enjoy together around our communal table. There follows a demonstration of the main course before it’s your turn to cook again. While you enjoy your meal, Chef will prepare a delicious pudding.

Some example menus are below. Please feel free to make requests in advance of the event. Food Sorcery ingredients are seasonal and locally sourced. Allergies, vegan/vegetarian options always available on request.

Example menu – the menu changes every six weeks

• First Dish – spring rolls, Thai-style fish cakes, falafels, calamari, or home-made breads with a twist

• Second Dish – the main event will feature meat, fish or poultry (vegan/vegetarian options on request) and some seasonal veg and appropriate carb. This may be traditional, globally inspired or invented… go with it!
