At Hog Roast Great Yarmouth, we’ve got a soft spot for charity events. Whether it’s a grand gala or a casual fundraiser, we love being part of celebrations that give something back to the community. And let me tell you, our recent charity ball was one for the books! Held at a luxury hotel, this charity ball was a night of glitz and glamour, with 350 guests dressed to the nines in outfits that could have graced any red carpet. Glitzy props completed the look, adding a sparkle in every corner. The stage was perfectly set for an evening of high-class entertainment and, of course, tantalising food—all in the name of raising funds for a brilliant children’s charity.
Our team at Hog Roast Great Yarmouth was excited to roll up our sleeves and deliver a feast as exceptional as the setting. We kicked off the evening with a bit of flair, circulating the ballroom with trays of refreshing drinks and handmade canapés that were almost too pretty to eat. (Almost!) The bamboo platters were loaded with a mix of delightful bites including pan-seared fillet of beef, mini quiches, Indian-inspired nibbles, chicken satay skewers, and smoked Scottish salmon. As the evening got into full swing, guests were treated to a spectacular lineup of live entertainment. From mesmerising music and a mind-boggling mentalist to a side-splitting stand-up comedian and a magician who left everyone spellbound, the entertainment was top-notch.
And as the guests soaked in the experience, the feast began! Hog Roast Great Yarmouth brought out the soup starter, served with freshly baked bread rolls and creamy butter. The real star of the meal, however, was yet to come. Our dynamic duo, Andrew and James, served up a feast fit for the occasion. We had our classic hog roast with all the trimmings, spit-roasted lamb with Yorkshire puddings and mint sauce, and grilled vegetable and halloumi skewers. Guests could customise their plates with sides like coleslaw, seasonal salad leaves, Caesar salad, and creamy dauphinoise potatoes. And just when the guests thought it couldn’t get any better, we pulled out the big guns—dessert! Imagine vacherins of strawberries with passion fruit cream and sticky toffee pudding, bringing the meal to an epic close. With full bellies and smiles all around, Hog Roast Great Yarmouth quietly cleared the plates and let the celebrations continue.
