The Craft Guild of Chefs Spring Ball returns with a wow
The revival of the Craft Guild of Chefs Spring Ball held on Sunday, May 6, proved to be a roaring success, giving chefs across the country the chance to enjoy a rare night off with friends, families and colleagues – so much so that the Craft Guild’s social committee is already planning next year’s event.
Chefs gathered at the Crown Moran Hotel in London for a delicious six-course meal cooked by the Guild's members, Stephen Scuffell and Dennis Mwakulua, and the hotel's brigade. The menu included steamed Alaskan salmon, braised Welsh lamb, and orange and ripple ice cream with raspberry honeycomb dust for dessert. The dinner was followed by the chefs and their guests dancing the night away to a live jazz band. The Guild would like to thank all those involved in organising the evening as well as the sponsors of the event – Alaska Seafood, Ikova, Lactalis McLelland, Major, Oranka, Welsh Lamb, Wenlock Spring and 3 Star Veg – whose support was invaluable. • The Spring Ball 2013 will take place at the Crown Moran once again on Sunday, May 26.
