Tis the season for wedding tastings!

Your wedding should reflect your unique taste and style which is why we invite our couples to join us for a bespoke tasting. Crafting the perfect menu for your special day is a journey we take together and our tastings help you to savour, refine and personalise every dish to ensure it’s nothing short of exceptional.

All the best weddings start with a canapé or two (if I was to get married again I think it might be all canapés!) Here are some of my favourite canapés on this year.

Back by popular demand with a new dusting of poppy seeds - Parmesan Sable, goats cheese, pickled beet hearts.

Sweetcorn fritter, avocado, pink onion (vegan)

Filet of beef tartar, black rice cracker, confit egg yolk

Quail egg, black sushi

Tempura oyster mushroom, porcini aioli, pickled shimeji (vegan)

Goats cheese, charred onion crostini

Confit potato cake, ox cheek, house pickles

Bocconcini, yellow nectarine, rosemary

Korean fried cauliflower (also in chicken format!)

Lovage arancini, confit garlic aioli, pea shoots

Apple tart tatin, cinnamon ice cream. Tasty little pud on last week can’t beat all that extra caramel

How will you be setting your wedding? Create the perfect tablescape that is unique to you. Be it classic, elegant, flamboyant or elaborate we can help you design the perfect setting for your wedding banquet.

We work with a number of different suppliers so you can upgrade and embellish your table as you wish, with bespoke crockery, coloured glassware, and linens.

We also work with some incredible florists (an essential part to any tablescape), who can lift your setting to the next level with beautiful blooms and rich foliage.

So looking forward to seeing what scapes we create in 2025.

My favorite winter starter. Beautiful burratina, roasted, pickled and marinated heritage beets. Fig leaf oil (made late summer from our own fig tree), puffed Parmesan crisp, dehydrated red beetroot powder, toasted pine nuts.

Beautiful private view at Edel Assanti last week.

Lovely to be creating bespoke bites for such an amazing exhibition.

Italian style Canapés to follow the brief “themes of ecology & the human relationship with flora and fauna”

Tempura oyster mushroom, wild mushroom aioli, pickled shimeji mushroom (now a new favorite of mine!)

Vegan Miso Kabocha squash, Pickled walnut, cavolo Nero crisp

Black rice sushi, siracha aioli, soy marinated quails’ egg

Vegan Sweetcorn fritter, guacamole & jalapeño aioli, sour cream & pickled pink onion.

Espresso mousse cake, Morello cherry jelly, honey Combe, flowers.

Pretty little things. Some tasty canapés on this week. Will def be doing these again.

It’s exactly 3 weeks until the big day and definitely a good time to start talking CANAPES!!

I absolutely love a canapé reception. What is more of a treat than a selection of mini morsels with a cold glass of fizz. I definitely like to serve a few canapés on the big day - still trying to decide what though. Beef carpaccio with Parmesan cream and truffle oil is a firm favourite and decadently befitting of such a day!

But perhaps pic number 1 - a new addition the the menu - rosemary confit potato cake, slow cooked shredded ox cheek, sriracha aioli and house pickles.
#2 Korean fried cauliflower
#3 classic smoked salmon blini (always a crowd pleaser)
#4 vegan and gluten free sweetcorn fritter, avocado and jalapeño salsa (maybe one for that veganuary party!)
#5 sea bass ceviche in black rice cracker
#6 Parmesan shorts, goats cheese and pepper purer
#7 blini (again!)
#8 that beef carpaccio I mentioned…
#9 lemon curd tartlets
#10 black rice sushi, soy marinated quail egg
#11 brulee meringue tart
#12 little crispy duck pancakes
#13 little fish pie
#14 seared tuna, crispy ginger and pickled black radish
#15

Wedding tasting!! All our couples get to enjoy their wedding menu cooked for them by a private chef at home. This is my favourite bit of all the planning…. treating our lovely couples to a private banquet with canapés just for them! It also gives us the chance to chat through plans for the big day as well as refining our menus to suit particular desires and preferences creating perfectly bespoke dishes to suit individual styles and budgets. Yum yum yum.

Realise the Rose Kentish Kitchen instagram account hadn't been linked to the page?! This has now been sorted going forwards and I should be able to keep our followers up to date on what the kitchen has been up to (we have obviously done more events than the last post in jan 2022?!)....

Like this beautiful wedding cake we produced Arnos Vale Cemetery two weekends ago - a very generous commission by a friend of the happy couple.

For all past events from the last few years take a look at our on instagram!

We cooked for a very lovely couple this weekend who sent over photos of their meal which I wanted to share.
