The theatre of service during the evening really was the cherry on top of the cake!

Our team of Event Designers each represented one of the seven deadly sins: Pride, Greed, Lust, Gluttony, Wrath and Sloth.

Guests arrived through the large doors from the Upper Landing to be dazzled by the set-up of the evening. Frans Mortengren, General Manager of Signet Library and our company Wine Ambassador, welcomed guests and introduced the theme for the evening whilst sharing numerous ‘proud moment stories’ from our wider team. Jeroboams of Pommery Champagne were circulated along with a trio of canapes:

Gingerbread, black pudding puree, seared scallop, caviar – served in smoking dome
Lobster bisque, tempura tail, vanilla foam
Tapioca cracker, salt baked white turnip, malt gel, mint pearls

Throughout the evening guests were delighted with honest food that dazzled with art and theatre, all perfectly paired with wines from around the globe. The theatre of service during the evening really was the cherry on top of the cake! Aaron and John from our bar team rounded off the evening at their cocktail station serving two extravagant fiery cocktails.

The menu and location of this event both played a huge role in making it such a fabulous evening, however it’s this combined with the planning, the theming, the theatre, and the service provided by our team of incredibly talented professionals and suppliers that make Heritage Portfolio events so memorable and a true experience beyond food!
