TK MAXX PRESENTS BEDFORD SUMMER SESSIONS
The Cambridge Dining Co. have once again delved into festival catering, this time for the VIP Park Lounge at TK Maxx Bedford Summer Sessions.
Taking place over two weekends, the popular music festival hosted an array of artists tailored for multiple audiences within Bedford Park in the heart of Bedfordshire.
Catering for 1,500 guests over the 5 event days, we created a custom rustic grazing bar with floating botanic backdrop to set the tone within the refined space.
The VIP grazing bar housed our skilled chef team who carved local meats to order alongside vibrant, seasonal salads and sides.
Guests enjoyed sweet treats from our decadent dessert station which featured Cambridge Dining Co favourites coconut panna cotta, Pimms crème brûlée and chocolate delice.
VIP guests were able to enjoy a unique dining experience overlooking the main stage in the exclusive marquee garden whilst they enjoyed their meal.
This popular live music festival featured headline acts Tom Jones, Nile Rogers, Jess Glynne and Avril Lavigne.
WORKPLACE CATERING- SUMMER MENU
Delivering to offices throughout Cambridge and the surrounding areas, Cambridge Dining Co. are leading the way with our delicious workplace catering menus, purpose build for office lunches, meetings and post work gatherings.
Our sustainable menus are freshly prepared by our team of in-house chefs and efficiently delivered straight to the office door.
Our workplace catering is a much enhanced alternative to ‘the norm’ and a great way to boost team morale.
Vibrant, new dishes feature on our just launched summer menu such as: smoked duck breast with watermelon & orange salad & dill mayonnaise and seared tuna with wakame, brown rice, edamame bean, carrot, avocado, soy & ginger.
This week we have been out delivering to Amazon’s office in Cambridge. We provide their employees with lunches on a bi-weekly basis through a pre-agreed menu programme. They select from a range of interesting, seasonal options which can be delivered hot or cold. All employee dietary requirements can also be catered for.
As well as contracted deliveries we also provide a ‘one-off’ service should it be required.
We had the pleasure of catering for an employee activity day fuelling the Apple team, meetings for Illumina at Granta Park and client demonstrations at agronomist KWS.
Testimonials;

BOTANIC THEMED BIRTHDAY PARTY
At The Cambridge Dining Co, our private catering services ensure that everything is taken care of so that you can relax and experience a truly magical and memorable event. Our passionate team of highly skilled professionals work closely with you to create the perfect setting and menu to suit your exact requirements.
We loved creating a Botanic themed Birthday celebration earlier this month.
A show-stopping floral themed marquee was set up within the grounds of their private home and featured textured rattan furniture, light-up cherry trees, glitzy dance floor space and elegant bar areas
We welcomed over 200 guests, dressed in their finest flower themed attire, with champagne and themed canapes before guiding them into the botanical dining space for a spectacular culinary experience.
The beautiful sharing style main dishes were a celebration of vibrant Summer ingredients featuring fresh herb adorned plates such as lemon thyme chicken breast & miso gremolata, roasted fennel, fennel crisps & pomegranate and chargrilled maple glazed baby carrots & beetroot wedges with gochujang dressing.
The mains were closely followed by pretty, flower bejewelled sharing desserts which complimented the botanic surroundings. The evening finished with themed cocktails, lots of fun dancing and a surprise firework display!
“Firstly thanks to you and your team for all your hard work on Saturday, and of course in the run up to Saturday.
I’ve had so many compliments about how delicious the food was, so huge thanks to Ben, and also the service your staff provided. All contributing in no small part to the success of the evening, CDC really does provide an all round service!
Many thanks again and look forward to the next event!”
