Bread and Flowers served three hearty courses in the library at St Giles House. Dining by candlelight, the feeling of the supper was cozy and elegant. From the bride: We wanted to add something a little different to our drinks reception, and as Ollie and I both love Oysters, we organized for the Oyster Meister to serve our guests alongside the canapes and champagne. It was a real highlight for our guests (so they say!) and us! We were recommended to work with Bread and Flowers for the wedding breakfast and couldn't have been happier as they worked with us to create an incredible banquet to match the setting. A real highlight was the barbecued leg of lamb. It was truly delicious and impressive, given the volume of guests and quality that ensured. The wine was provided by Wanderlust Wine who specialize in organic and sustainable wines and were amazing to work with, providing the perfect wine and Champagne to accompany the menu, and we plan to keep stocking up for our own wine supply with the same bottles from the day. Starter: Caponata with burrata. Cured mackerel, cucumber jelly with baskets of sourdough crisps Main: Spanish marinated BBQ leg of lamb with & crispy onions, beetroot and potato dauphinoise, sauteed winter green veg, herb borani Leek & roasted chestnut risotto Baked hake, ginger, beetroot, orange, sesame, lemon rice & tender stem broccoli Pudding: Spicy apple & pear crumble with blackberry cream Treacle, thyme & orange tart, clotted cream
