Taste of Spain to hit Keswick with ‘All-You-Can-Eat Spanish Tapas Nights’

Following the resounding success of its previous Spanish Tasting Night in March, the Skiddaw Hotel is thrilled to announce its latest foodie events: two “all you care to enjoy” Spanish tapas nights!

Responding to overwhelming demand from guests, these events promise to be a treat for the tastebuds, showcasing a range of more casual Spanish dishes that people know and love.

Bobby Fillingham, esteemed Head Chef and connoisseur of Spanish cuisine, expressed his enthusiasm for the events, stating "Whereas the last Spanish event was an opportunity to showcase more refined Spanish food, these nights will feature a whole array of feel-good authentic tapas dishes that satisfy the tastebuds."

“We’ve become well-known for our tapas, which we’ve been serving at the Skiddaw Hotel since 2020, but these dishes will provide a taste of some new flavours we don’t currently serve, as well as existing guest favourites.”

The two events, hosted in Brasserie 31, will offer guests 90 minutes of unlimited tapas dishes, allowing them to savour their favourites time and time again. Additionally, upon arrival, attendees will be greeted with a complimentary glass of Spanish red or white sangria, setting the tone for a great evening.

Chef Bobby’s passion for Spanish cooking is deeply rooted, stemming from his extensive experience living and working in the Balearics for over 18 years, therefore guests attending on either night can expect a lavish spread of traditional dishes that perfectly capture the essence of Spanish culture.

From platters of expertly curated cured meats and succulent pork meatballs in a rich tomato sauce to sizzling chorizo cooked in wine and the classic favourite of patatas bravas, the menu promises to satisfy all cravings.

The foodie fare also includes a couple of sweet options including unlimited churros with warm chocolate sauce, as well as burnt basque vanilla cheesecake. As an added treat, guests will also have the opportunity to learn how to recreate the Skiddaw Hotel's signature sangria at home through an exclusive demonstration.

To accommodate the overwhelming interest, the all-you-care-to-enjoy Spanish Tapas Nights will take place on both Thursday 20^th and Friday 21^st June, providing guests with two chances to experience the food on offer.

Furthermore, members of the Skiddaw Dining Club can enjoy an extra 10% off the ticket price, a complimentary perk of being part of the club, making the ticket price an unbeatable £35 per person.

With limited tickets available, interested individuals are encouraged to secure their spot early to avoid missing out.
