George Egg - Set Menu - Live

An award-winning, multi-sell-out tour! An evening of cooking with laughs, including the best bits from previous acclaimed shows.

George Egg is the comedian who cooks. This award-winning, multi-sell-out, international-touring performer presents a delightful evening of cooking-with-laughs, comprising the best bits from his previous acclaimed shows, plus a few new surprises.

Over the past half-decade George has toured three shows (‘Anarchist Cook’, ‘DIY Chef’ and ‘Movable Feast’), he’s cooked over a thousand dishes, all of them in front of a live audience and none of them with a kitchen. Revisiting those unlikely environments armed with the chef’s skills he’s honed, you can expect to learn how to make food on a train with a laptop, in a shed with power tools and in a hotel room with the appliances they unwittingly provide you with. Three plates of gourmet food prepared in the most unconventional of ways and with the opportunity to taste the results at the end. It’s time for the funniest recipes and the most delicious jokes.

This event is part of this year's Ashfood Food and Drink Festival. To find out more and to book other events, visit https://www.loveashford.com/
