Vegetarian - Mushroom, brie, rocket & redcurrant puff pastry casket with a thyme cream sauce

Meat Option - Poached chicken fillet with a sauce of roasted peppers, basil pesto & mozzarella

Gluten free, vegan and other dietary requirements will be catered for on request.

DRINKS - Each ticket includes:

  • Welcome drink on arrival during the networking reception.
