Foodie Events - JANUARY

If you haven't had chance to visit yet, you still have a few days before Winter Wonderland closes on 5th January. Packed with attractions, rides, stalls, food and drink, you will not be bored. Do be prepared for it to be busy though - but with free entry, what do you expect!

I know I've talked about it before, but Wolvercote Supper Club are hosting another fabulous evening on Saturday 4th January - for which you are already too late to book! February is fully booked too, but get organised early and book a seat at Caroline's March event. The menu will be released in January, though bookings are being accepted now at £25 per person, plus £2.50 booking fee. Check out my full review here.

If you're game ;-) The Five Arrows, part of Waddesdon Manor, are hosting a Seasonal Game Dinner on 24th January, with Waddesdon Estate Game Terrine, Eythrope Estate pheasant breast and Rothchild wine all featuring on the menu, book your seat for £59 per person.

If you like your breakfast to a backdrop of jazz, then the Oxfordshire Pantry at Blenheim Palace is the place for you. Running on selected Sundays from 29th December to 30th March, they will be hosting Sunday Jazz. A selection of delicious food options will be available including, breakfast paninis, warming porridge, pastries and fresh tea and coffee as well as the Sunday newspapers.

Cookery Classes to book ahead: 

- Little Cow Creative Cakes are holding a Vintage Cake Class on Saturday 25th January, from 10am to 5pm for £100 per person. You'll learn how to make gorgeous vintage decorations for your own cake.
- Sophie's Cookery School will be running several classes, including wok cooking, cakes and vegetarian this month, places are available for £60 per person.
- CiCi CoCo continue to teach all things Italiana, with two classes in January focussing on winter pasta and regional flavours. Prices from £65 per person.

Not a huge amount for January, after all that festive food I'm sure we'll welcome the brief break. There will be plenty of romantic treats for February though. And don't forget all our fab local farmers' markets, you can find details of them on my Foodie Events Calendar.
