Floating Feast | Spring Edition

Join us aboard the Floating Garden for an enchanting evening of culinary exploration, cultural immersion and nature connection. In this Spring Edition of our Floating Feast series, we'll delve into the art of making Chinese dumplings (饺子, Jiaozi), a dish rich in tradition and flavour.​

We'll gather an array of vibrant, fresh Spring ingredients, including some magical picks from our own garden, to create a variety of flavourful dumplings. Throughout the evening, you'll master the skills of dumpling making, uncover the stories and cultures behind Jiaozi, and enjoy the flavours of the season with a delicious feast.

All proceeds will support Global Generation and Canal Dream CIC in delivering more community projects.​

What to Expect:

• Share in Jiaozi culture and gain insights into the history and stories behind Jiaozi in Chinese culture, including regional variations and traditional occasions for their preparation.

• Engage in a hands-on session where you'll learn to prepare and fill dumplings with seasonal plant-based ingredients, exploring various folding techniques and cooking methods.​

• Savour the dumplings you've crafted alongside a selection of delicious savoury and sweet dishes and share stories as you take in the sights and sounds of the watery landscape.

• Reflect on the experience, and receive a curated recipe to recreate the dumplings at home.

Tickets start at £35 - head to the full event page for more information and to buy your tickets.
