My Suggested 3 Course Dinner Party Menus

Goats Cheese Parcels with a Cranberry Dressing – Wild Boar Stew with Chorizo and White Beans – Banoffi Pie

By Leave a Comment

My style of cooking for our dinner parties is fairly basic, but tasty (I hope) and easy to. The hardest part is to think up different menus, so I don’t repeat anything, and also when you are hosting, it is nice to prepare and cook as much as you can in advance, or dishes that do not need to be cooked when your guests are ensconced, so you spend most of the time with your guests rather than being in the kitchen.
