What is an ‘Experience’?
At Greatest British we celebrate the best of British produce, chefs, skills and hospitality.
A Chef led restaurant experience is one that best reflects and represents your business, pushing the boundaries to create your ultimate ‘signature experience’. Not just a meal with a ‘welcome glass of champagne’, but one of exception which celebrates the best of British, bringing something extra to the table. Adding a metaphorical ‘ingredient’ to create an experience that ‘informs, educates or inspires’ the recipient, creating memories for life. For example:

• A la carte menu with welcome seasonal British spirits cocktail, infused with garden botanicals, or welcome English fizz – how about a complimentary British cheese board?
• Tasting menu with additional seasonal dish/amuse/pre-dessert created just for the recipient focusing on seasonal ingredients/infusions.
• Chef Table interactive experience, matched with wines hosted by your sommelier.
• Guest chef event with high end interaction and exposure to new cooking methods.
• Overnight ‘Dine&Stay’ or even our ‘Dine&indulge’ dining and spa breaks. Adding value at every touch point.
• Group activity for exclusive use including speciality dining locations, outdoor cooking experiences or Chefs table indulgences.
