A Spring Lunch with Rose Maxwell

Join us for a relaxed spring lunch at Agweres with chef Rose Maxwell, celebrating the rustic flavours of South West France through food and wine. Inspired by Jeanne Stang’s much-loved cookbook Goose Fat & Garlic, paired with wine from the South West France selected by expert Debbie Warner. 

After growing up and cooking in London, doing her own pop ups and working at Padella and Trullo, Rose moved to Cornwall 5 years ago to work as Head Chef at the renowned farm to table restaurant Coombeshead Farm. Embracing what’s in season, celebrating the best local produce around, and bringing people together through food, her passion is for simple, good cooking, inspired by the farmhouses of Britain and Europe. She’s now cooking part time, growing at Mora Farm and working hard on her thriving allotment.

Through three courses, we’ll share dishes that honour the spirit of the French Southwest, think slow-cooked meats, fragrant garlic and the unmistakable depth that comes with the rich French style of cooking. Debbie’s pairings will feature wines from Entras, a South West French winery whose approach is guided by a search for vitality in their crops and vines. Improving soil life through diverse cover crops and working in harmony with the land to produce expressive, characterful wines. 

Expect delicious food, good conversation and an easy convivial atmosphere as we welcome in the new season. 

Your ticket includes a three course meal, with an optional South West French wine pairing selected by sommelier and wine educator Debbie Warner to complement each course.
