About this Event
As French Scientist Samuel de Sorbière said in 1663, when he spent a year in London: “The English ... very much delight in pudding. ... They think themselves so happy when they have a Pudding before them.”
Nothing has changed and The Assembly House is proud to celebrate the most important part of any meal: pudding!
We will give each pudding the pomp and ceremony they deserve as they are introduced by expert Pudding Master David Clayton and then paraded in front of you on their way to the pudding buffet!
Try dish-after-dish of your favourites, the only rule - a clean bowl before you return.
For this first Parade of 2025, we’ll be serving warming puddings to keep you cosy on a cold night! We’re talking homely and indulgent recipes for crumbles, sponges and rice puddings served with lashings of custard and pouring cream. Delicious!
Arrive at 7pm for a 7.30pm start, call to book on 01603 626402 to avoid booking fees, £38 per person. Unfortunately we are unable to adapt the Pudding Parade menus for gluten-free diners due to cross-contamination.
Communal tables, sharing food, good times, we will bring out dish after dish of good food for the table to share.
