At Hog Roast Dodworth, we’re thrilled to be gearing up for a celebration like no other – Emily’s birthday party! While all birthdays are special, Emily’s holds a unique charm as it only graces the calendar once every four years. Yes, she’s a leap-year baby, and this year, she’s seizing the opportunity to celebrate her 28th birthday in style on the actual day – the 29th of February.
Planning a grand affair, Emily has invited 200 guests to join her in marking this rare occasion. To inject a touch of class and excitement into the night, she has chosen a Great Gatsby theme for the festivities. Encouraging guests to don dazzling 1920s attire, Emily aims to transport everyone back to the glamour and extravagance of the Roaring Twenties.
The chosen venue, a function hall in a pub nestled in the heart of Barnsley’s city centre, will set the stage for an unforgettable night of revelry. Emily plans to transform the space to suit her theme, creating an atmosphere that captures the essence of the Great Gatsby era.
As for the pièce de résistance – the food – Emily has enlisted the services of Hog Roast Dodworth. Opting for our Hog Roast Dining Experience Menu, she has ensured that her guests will be treated to a culinary journey that matches the grandeur of the occasion.
Hog Roast Dodworth will kick off the celebrations with a selection of tasty canapes, including pan-seared fillet of beef, roasted halloumi and tomato crostini, smoked Scottish salmon, chicken liver parfait, and chicken satay skewers. These delectable bites will set the tone for a night of gourmet indulgence.
The main meal promises to be a real show-stopper, offering guests a choice between our traditional hog roast with all the trimmings, spit-roasted English lamb, or meat-free BBQ-pulled jackfruit rolls. Side salads, coleslaw, and buttered new potatoes complete the feast, ensuring there’s something for every palate.
To sweeten the celebration, Hog Roast Dodworth will serve individual chocolate tortes and cheesecakes, adding the perfect finishing touch to this upscale culinary experience. Once the feasting concludes, our team will seamlessly clear away the leftovers and catering equipment, leaving the guests to dance the night away to the live band that Emily has thoughtfully organised.
As we eagerly prepare to take part in Emily’s leap-year, we share in her excitement and hopes for a celebration that exceeds all expectations!
