Forest Feast - Christmas Party ABOUT THE ART OF DINING The Art of Dining is a collaboration between Moro-trained Chef Ellen Parr and set designer Alice Hodge, bringing London a unique series of pop-up culinary events. Set designer and artist Alice Hodge is an art follower, creator, teacher and collector of tat. She has designed bespoke arrangements for weddings, parties, theatre productions and photo shoots. Interactive elements and attention to detail are what make her tick! Chef Ellen Parr spent her formative years working at Moro and you can taste the Middle Eastern and Spanish influences in her food. She recently travelled around South East Asia and India researching cooking methods, techniques and flavours. She also has an obsession with chilli sauce. Expect the unexpected with her unusual menus. These two creative powerhouses have come together to create unique and exciting popup dinners, inviting guests to eat amongst a fun theatrical performance, sometimes becoming part of it whilst dining on mouth-watering five course meals within some of London s greatest venues. Successful past Art of Dining pop-ups include: Abigail s Party - A 70s themed, five course pop-up dining experience, combining food, theatre, music and set design inspired by Mike Leigh s play of the same name Say Cheese - A unique photo-culinary experience combining a photography exhibition with a pop-up restaurant and bar inspired by the world of Martin Parr The Colour Palate - A pop-up dining experience where the food, drink, room, music, table, cutlery and mood change colour with each course Gone Camping - Throughout the month of January this pop-up dining experience brought guests in from the cold winter nights back in time to their family summer holidays, sitting by a campfire, singing camp songs and dining on fun, experimental, sometimes charcoaled flavoured dishes
The Office Christmas Party THE CONCEPT An 80s themed pop-up experience, combining food, theatre, music and set design, inspired by the work place but not as you see it everyday. Lydia Bellingham, female powerhouse and boss of The Pickle Factory Ltd, will be taking the night off from monitoring the pickle machines and be hosting your party. From a welcome speech celebrating the history of pickle to one on one appraisals and the Christmas disco, she will make sure your party goes off with a bang and leave you feeling really quite pickled. The room will be filled with interactive elements. From fun filling, to post-it note quizzes, to phones ringing, to water coolers filled with punch and throughout the night a DJ from the accounts department will be bringing you all the music you request from his desk. So, crimp that fringe, pop on your shoulder pads, straighten that comedy Christmas tie and head to the The Pickle Factory (10 minutes from Bethnal Green) for a night of disco dancing, Secret Santa, pickle and an awkward moment or two with the boss, no doubt.
The Office Christmas Party THE VENUE In the heart of fashionable East London, The Pickle Factory is an brilliant venue, with the iconic backdrop of the Bethnal Green Gas Holders lending an authentic, industrial flavour to the location.

The Office Christmas Party ENTERTAINMENT AND DECOR The Office Party will see set designer Alice Hodge take you back to the 1980s and transform the The Pickle Factory into a classic office environment full of overhead projectors and pinboards, filing cabinets and pot plants, a refreshing lack of computers and the all important, and much abused, photocopier. Your night includes: Venue hire within Office themed decor There will be desks full of activities to sit at through the night but not a formal sit down dinner.. thats way to boring for this party! Actors & Theatrical Experiences throughout the evening DJ A secret store room of surprises to discover Bowl Food & Finger Food Menu 4 drinks person Our office boss Lydia Bellingham will lead your evening with games, appraisals and bad behaviour. There will be filing that needs to be done through the night and phone calls that need to taken so although it is party Lydia will be making you do some work!
