Corporate Christmas Parties

Has your office Christmas party always been a disappointing combination of soggy brussel sprouts, not so tender turkey and plain plum pudding?  Have you been asked to organise something a little more fun this year. Well, now you have the chance to improve standards and really impress your colleagues. Here at Ballyknocken Cookery School we invite you and your team to cook your own delicious Christmas dinner and create your own unique Christmas party.  Why give your colleagues a special Christmas work event that they will always remember!

This is the most fun you will have this year as you don your hats and aprons and get to work under the guidance of our expert Ballyknocken tutors.  You and your team will create your own delicious three course Christmas meal from start to finish.  We will plan your Christmas party to perfection and you can choose from our two hour master classes – An Italian Christmas or The Perfect Gourmet Christmas.

Our tutors will also introduce the team to new cooking trends & techniques, including knife skills.  After all your hard work in the kitchen sit down and enjoy the fruits of your labour.

If you so wish then after dinner you can try some fun blind wine tasting or Irish coffee making.

We can also help you with your dinner music and entertainment and have a full wine and beer licence.

The Ballyknocken Christmas Party menu includes :

Leek & Oatflake Scones

Celeriac Bisque with Thyme

Glazed Turkey, Pre Brined with Cider

Apple, Sausage, Parsnip and Fresh Sage Stuffing

Hasselback Potatoes

Roast Sweet Potatoes with Lime Syrup

Brussels Sprouts With Butter (or Cannellini) Beans And Parmesan

All guests will receive a recipe booklet – perfect for making the office Christmas party dishes at home.
