About this Event

Our last Migrant Table workshop was such a success, and we received so much lovely feedback from people asking us to run another one. So, we've answered your calls and are back with another workshop on Friday 20th November!

This time, we'll be exploring the stories behind three traditional sweet treats. You'll learn where the ingredients come from, when and why these biscuits are traditionally made, and hear real memories and experiences from refugees sharing the food that reminds them of home.

On the menu:

  1. Roasted Sesame Biscuits – Sudan
  2. Maamoul – Kurdistan
  3. Baklava – Middle East

We'll make all three together, learning the recipes, techniques and stories behind each one along the way. Come along, get baking and leave with a little more knowledge of the people, places and traditions behind the food we eat!

We can't wait to see you.

Ticket prices and donations

The ingredients for each workshop place cost us £10, so we suggest a donation of £20 per person to help cover costs and support our work.

If you're in a position to give a little more, you can also donate £40 to cover your place and pay for someone seeking safety to attend who might otherwise be unable to afford a ticket. This helps us make sure everyone has the opportunity to take part.
