CONVIVIUM
Feast and socialise like a Roman, with a series of delicious dishes from the classical culina led by Lady Ellen of Wyteley, relaxing in the fine company of your trusted friends (you watch my back, I'll watch yours...et tu, Brute?).
So dress in your best toga or chiton and be prepared for surprising radishes, decadent duck dressed in plum sauce, unctuous cheesecake dripping with honey, and more, much, much more....
Consumption Note: many dishes include the ubiquitous Roman garum condiment, which is fish-based (but does not taste fishy). Vegetarian options are available, but if you are allergic to bony fish, you should not attend this feast because we cannot guarantee no cross-contamination.
