More than three months to go until Christmas but I am getting bombarded with offers from bars and restaurants around London who want to host our staff Christmas party. Swizzlestick (I love that word!) runs Pause, Clause and Patch - three cocktail bars and restaurants and tonight I was invited to the Patch Bar for a Christmas party tasting.
We arrived fashionably late and still early enough to get a seat in the downstairs bar area before it got really busy. Christmas decorations everywhere and welcome Christmassy cocktails. A good start! The canapes were really nice and kept coming seamlessly to our table: from salmon blinis, to cocktail sausages, turkey skewers with cranberry sauce, spring rolls and chocolate eclairs and mini-cheesecake for dessert.
The organizers came and checked we were all right but didn't even attempt to push their sales pitch on us. It was a really pleasant evening - and another reminder about the perks of my job! :-)
Your post is great to read. I was wondering what are top tips for finding Christmas party venues?
ReplyDeleteThanks. No hard and fast rules - and it seems as if you've already found your answer in that post you linked to ;-)
