Saturday Course

Our Saturday Course is our flagship full-day food and wine experience.  We ease you into the morning with a glass of English Fizz with breakfast inspired canapés and the day also includes a delicious 3-course seasonal lunch.

Your venue is the historic sixteenth century Suckling House which is home to Cinema City, Norwich's arthouse cinema and leading entertainment complex. With its stunning vaulted ceilings and pretty courtyard garden it's the perfect setting for the day.

During the day you will taste at least 15 wines, from all around the world and learn all about wine including how to make amazing food and wine pairings. The day is suitable for anybody, from beginners to budding connoisseurs and is a relaxed, informal event.
