A Night of Charity Fundraising and Burlesque Dancing!

We are delighted to have been a part of the recent Bookmongers Fundraiser at Rebecca Hossack Gallery to raise money for two wonderful charities – The Christina Noble Children’s Foundation and CYPPD (children and young people’s protection and development) – and who will donate a library bus to the National Museum of Mongolia who will run it as the first of its kind in the country.

THE BOOKMONGERS team will be driving from England to Mongolia to raise money for these great causes and yes, that is 12,000km and they are not mechanics nor do they speak Russian!

It was a night of food, drink, live music, burlesque dancing with a raffle, auction and Mongolian photo experience at the wonderful Rebecca Hossack Gallery. Our lovely team were on hand for the evening with food and drinks and amazingly not a single drink was spilled despite all eyes being on the incredible dancers!

French themed Reception Party at the Peter Harrington Gallery

It’s not often we get the sheer treat of working in a kitchen adorned in antique maps and cartoons by famous illustrators – and a very welcome change to staring at Topps Tiles finest kitchen tiles it was too!

This exclusive event was for a Private Preview for “The French Impressionists and the School of Paris” exhibition, featuring prints and drawings by Picasso, Renoir, Dali and Matisse (amongst many more), which will be on display at The Gallery at Peter Harrington (formerly Old Church Galleries) in London SW3 from 17 March – 15 April 2011.

Mesdames Green & Graham were asked to create a French themed food offering befitting of the artists being showcased. On the menu; steak et frites, confit of duck with cassoulet, crevettes and fine wines. An enjoyable soiree, not only for the guests but also the workers and such a great atmosphere.

Fiesta Menu – Mojitos & Tortilla Wraps

February seems to have been quite the party month for G&G; from launch parties to art parties to afternoon tea and formal dinners with some of the UK’s celebs and most influential business types but we’re sworn to secrecy so alas cannot name names – sorry. Well, we had another great (work) night out at the Rebecca Hossack Gallery this week that we wanted to share with you…

Mesdames Green & Graham created a pop-up Mexican bar complete with tortilla wraps, mixed bean salads, moreish spiced dips and enough tropical fruit and mojitos to keep the party (or should I say fiesta?) in full swing into the early hours. The bar went down a storm with both curators, artists and guests alike. A lively art event featuring the work of Esther Nienhuis, Peter Clark and Angus McDonald with music by DJ Aaron Fitzgerald.

Fuelled by Watermelon Martinis & Bubble n’Squeak Patties!

Mesdames Green & Graham were thrilled to be contracted to cater for the recent party to celebrate the launch of acclaimed jockey, Paul Nicholls’ new book “Lucky Break”, which was held at Thomas Pink in Jermyn Street, London. Guests were fuelled by watermelon martinis from London’s premier cocktail specialists, Bar Eclipse and our legendary bubble n’squeak patties with ham hock and pea puree – a dangerous combo! But the food helped soak up the booze so we hope there weren’t too many hangovers at this fab party!!!

Two odd coincidences made us giggle that night: 1) the venue had a mechanical horse, which seemed rather apt given the event and 2) we managed to grab a few pics of the lovely G&G team and noticed, when looking back at the photos, that the front of house staff are all blonde while the kitchen team are all brunette – an unintentional but highly amusing coincidence that has become a bit of a staff joke. We’re not colourists, honestly!
