A letter from our Dining Valentine – Magical Past Experiences – Bangers & Balls
Our Dine at Home Experiences can feel like they are cloaked in mystery and our Valentine Day Weekend Dine at Home was no different. We love to tease our diners so plump your velvet cushion, put your feet up and read all about every initmate detail that goes into it.
Tease Your Valentine
It isn’t until the night that all the mouth wateringly good secrets that lie within are revealed. We tantalized your tastebuds with Rhubarb Marshmellows to toast using match sticks and tealights wrapped in red ribbon.
We teased you with dried scattered rose petals and hand made Rhubarb and Ginger love potions. To wow and seduce your Valentine dining companion.
Just like our inimate Supper Club events we like to surprise you and make you feel excited like a little child again. We know you are at home and there are no goats to feed, or Saucepan Man to find for your next clue.
Or a latern to light to find a singing lady perched upon a rock or the twinkling lights as you search for your canope dangling by the firelight in the Far Away Tree.
But it doesn’t mean we can’t bring some of the magic into your homes until we can all safely dine together again.
Your Dining Valentine – Bangers and Balls
We begin by wooing you as we – your dining valentine message you like no other take away.
Dear Imogen, Cassonnova will be on his way with your Dine at Home Supper Club between 7.15 and 7.30. Happy Valentines Weekend. Your Dining Valentine – Bangers and Balls.
There is nothing worse than waiting for the doorbell to go on Valentines Day. So we sent a cheeky message to let our valentine dinners know Cassonnova in male or lady form was on their way!
We have never ever had to driven past igloos on the way to delight our diners before. It was certainly a different but magical experience. As if we had stepped out of the ballroom (kitchen) into a rather magical land.

This Valentine’s Weekend we treated our diners to three delicious courses which included – Our Hamper of Love packed full of handwrapped individual goodies to share,
Our Main “Rich Heavy but Melt in the Mouth Tender” Red Wine Braised Ox Cheek Balls plated and ready to pop in the oven. Consumated by your Valentine Be Mine S’mores Hamper ready to toast with your Valentine.
The rhubarb and ginger ‘love potion’ went down a treat in a glass of bubbly.
We know the Love Potion works because we receive messages like these moments after we drop them off. They really do make us blush.
“It’s bloody awesome. Love the presentation and detail!! ” Zana”
“Sublime… we are thrilled with our magical supper and we haven’t evet eaten it yet!” Mary
Then you sent us Love Notes some handwritten and some shared to make others Smitten. Thank you to our first time diner Gemma for this beautiful one.
“Happy Valentine’s Day, lovers. Food is my thing so I wanted to mark this weekend with a treat, and a rare meal I didn’t have to cook myself. .
We were spoilt in Whitstable; so many takeaways, delivery services, and cook-at-home boxes but we plumped for @bangersandballs.
. Wow! Casanova delivered two hampers to the door containing our starters and deserts. Our main course was plated and still warm so we popped that in the oven while we got stuck into a delicious scotch egg with a fiery rhubarb sauce and a local cheese with a beetroot chutney (served from a vintage tea cup – if I said “this is so cute” once I said it a hundred times). .
The main course was red wine braised ox balls with local veg and a flavourful pesto made with carrot tops. Rich, hearty but melt-in-the mouth tender.

Dessert was so much fun. The hamper contained tealights, matches and skewers and we set about melting the tangy rhubarb marshmallows which we slathered onto crumbly, buttery biscuits and topped with the homemade chocolates provided.
