To anybody who buys a ticket (http://www.rgu.ac.uk/aberdeen-student-festival-tickets) but cannot attend, and also to anyone who donates directly to us (https://paypal.me/AberDreamEvents?locale.x=en_GB) you will BOTH receive a recording of our whole Afternoon Shindig to cook/mix along in your own time! (Those who are attending tomorrow will also receive this)
Ahead of tomorrow, we thought we’d give you a wee treat in the form of 3 facts about our award winning chef Graham Mitchell of Tarragon Catering AND Newmachar Hotel, and our Malmaison Dundee mixologists Amy and Callum, including pictures from our various run throughs to show you what you will be making AND how much fun we've had 😉
Graham Mitchell:
• Scotland’s first surf n turf chef of the year
• Gold winner for Scottish seafood chef
• A craft guild chef of the year national chef of Britain semi finalist

Amy and Callum:
• Amy has worked in hospitality for 14 years, and has exclusively worked in bars and with cocktails for 6 of them
• Amy has written cocktail menus, created cocktail recipes and won several cocktail competitions
• Amy has since transferred that love into the management side and enjoys passing on her knowledge to people like Callum
• Callum has worked in hospitality for 4 years and has found that working in a cocktail bar is so far his favourite
• Callum recently helped Amy write an exclusive mocktail menu for their bar when COVID hit and restrictions would no longer allow them to serve alcohol inside
• This meant they had to be even more creative to try and give people the same experience (minus the alcohol!)
You will see ALL of us tomorrow, and we can’t wait to see you!🥳🤩
