Trish McEvoy Make Up Master Class

We had a very glamorous time at Selfridges, Oxford Street today when beauty legend Trish McEvoy made a rare appearance at the store. She was in town to give ‘Power of Make Up’ Master Classes and we were there to serve the many Selfridges customers who queued up to meet the lady herself and take part in her classes. We served chilled prosecco with Open Smoked Salmon and Cream Cheese Bagels with Black Pepper and Dill and Chargrilled Asparagus Crostini, Parmesan and Truffle Cream. Delicious and the make up is fabulous as well!

We helped launch the opening of the amazing new Vue cinema complex at Westfield last Thursday 11 February – Europe’s largest digital only cinema. A red carpet was laid out through the centre of Westfield and 850 guests (including Jodie Kidd and Barry Norman) dined on our canapes of ‘Tea Smoked Duck Breast, Parsnip Puree, Poached Cherries’ and ‘Roasted Red Mullet, Orange Puree, Rosemary Focaccia, Fennel Salad’. The divine Anna Friel cut the red ribbon and kissed our very own James Symington in the process! The complex has 14 massive cinema screens – 5 of which are 3D – and this week a total of 38 different movies are running – it’s a truly fantastic experience.

We get to do ALL the best parties. Oh yes, deWintons created a delicious selection of canapés (including Peking Duck Pancakes, Seared ‘Japanese Style’ Tuna and Pea and Mint Custard Tarts) for the Royal Couple themselves when they popped in to Leicester Square for the premiere of Lovely Bones, the new film by ‘Lord of the Rings’ director, Peter Jackson. Oh and Susan Sarandon was there too!

deWintons serves up a ‘Best of British Dinner’ for Dame Vera Lynn. We felt privileged to cater for Forces Sweetheart, Dame Vera Lynn at her ‘We’ll Meet Again’ commemorative dinner at the Imperial War Museum recently.

We organised a champagne reception for guests (including Sir Tim Rice) before serving a ‘Best of British’ dinner. But best of all was when the great Dame herself took to the stage with boy band ‘Blake’ to perform her classic song.
