The Fire Light Sessions
Friday 29th & Saturday 30th May
Fire. Food. Landscapes. Long Tables Under Open Sky.
The Fire Light Sessions are seasonal outdoor banquets cooked entirely over live fire and shared at long tables in some of the UK’s most beautiful landscapes. Good food, good fuel, good company and the simple pleasure of eating well together outdoors.
What are the Fire Light Sessions?
The Fire Light Sessions are slow, generous evenings built around the oldest way of cooking we have: Over fire.
Each Gathering takes place outdoors, in landscapes that shape the food itself. From wild meadows and estuary hillsides to vineyards, woodlands and open countryside. Fires are lit as guests arrive, smoke curls into the evening air and the table gradually fills with dishes cooked over wood of sustainably made British Charcoal from House of Charcoal.
Wherever possible, the fuel itself comes from the landscape around us. Charcoal made from trees that have grown nearby, returning heat and flavour back to the same land that produced the food.
The menu
The menu changes with the season and the place: vegetables from nearby fields, meat raised on surrounding pasture, fruit and herbs that make sense in that moment of the year.
Everything is served to share generous platters passed hand to hand down long communal tables. An optional wine flight, chosen to complement the food and the fire, runs through the evening for those who wish to follow it.
Each wine is selected by one of the UK’s most knowledgeable sommeliers, thoughtfully pairing grapes to ingredients and wines to each dish five glasses across the meal, with bottles available if something proves too irresistible. Drinks flow easily, conversation stretches long into dusk, and the pace of the night follows the rhythm of the fire itself.
Each Fire Light Session welcomes around one hundred guests to the table. This is not a rushed meal. It’s a feast. Indulgent, joyful and rooted in the land around us.
