The Christmas Pudding Parade at The Assembly House A decadent dinner, a cavalcade of Christmassy Puddings, a night to remember!
Step into a world of festive splendour and culinary excess at our Christmas Pudding Parade - a glittering seasonal spectacular where the roast is golden, the company merry, and the puddings? Oh, the puddings! Watch as they are paraded straight to your plate!
Each pudding is introduced with grandeur by our esteemed Pudding Master, David Clayton, ensuring they receive the pomp and ceremony they deserve as they make their way into the Music Room.
In our updated format, after the ceremonial parade, each table will be presented with its own selection of puddings: no buffet, no waiting, no queuing!
At The Assembly House, we believe Christmas should be bold, beautiful, and utterly delicious, and this event is the most indulgent way to warm up for the Big Day. Your evening starts with a warming cup of parsnip soup, gently sweetened with honey and fragranced with sage. A perfect whisper of winter to awaken your appetite.
Main courses:
Roast Norfolk Turkey and Honey-Baked Gammon
With sage, apricot, sausage meat and oat stuffing, pigs in blankets, and cranberry sauce.
Vegetarian Option:
Squash, Parsnip and Chestnut Wellington, served with a rich tomato, thyme, and lentil gravy.
All served with:
• Spiced red cabbage
• Crispy roast potatoes
• Roasted carrots and parsnips
• Brussels sprouts with chestnut granola
And then…the main event! The Pudding Parade!
Once your plate is clear, prepare yourself: the lights dim and the parade begins. A procession of perfect puddings will glide through the room and arrive directly at your table - dessert theatre delivered with flourish.
Feast on as many as you like, and yes, you really can try them all.
