Last Night's Feast Night Formal Hall 24/11
Stilton, figs and honey; a great combination of ingredients, that when combined with watercress and balsamic, make-up the main elements of last night's Formal Hall starter.

Last Night's Feast Night Formal Hall 23/11
Last night's dinner featured two American dishes, one from New Mexico, and the other from New England. The distance between these two areas of America is 2200 miles, or two and half times the distance between Land's End and John O'Groats. As you can imagine, the style of food in these two areas is as different as Scottish haggis and Cornish Pasty.

Last Night's Vegetarian Feast Night Formal Hall
Last Monday we sold ZERO tickets for our weekly veggie formal; this week we sold over 70 (with an additional 30 Fellow's dining at High Table)! Does this mean that our students are embracing a more sustainable vegetarian diet, or was this week's brilliant attendance, simply a fluke?

When the Fellows Dine
Few, if any Colleges in Cambridge, can boast of sharing the best of their Fellow’s grub with the rest of their student body; that is of course unless the College in question is Pembroke! For many years now we have served both students and Fellows the same menus, with High Table, Formal, and Buttery meals being replicated on both ends of Hall.
However, once a term, even Pembroke treats it’s Fellowship to an ‘extra-special’ Parlour Evening dinner, one worthy of inviting spouses, partners and fellow Heads of House. This special evening is fully-booked far in advance and requires military style precision when concocting menus, seating plans, flower orders and the wine selection.

Max and Simon's 21st Birthday Dinner Wednesday 18th November
Last Night, Max and Simon, two of the nicest guys you're likely to meet, jointly celebrated their 21st birthdays with a special dinner in the Old Library. Leaving nothing to chance, the birthday duo chose a lovely menu, worthy of such a special occasion!

A French Laundry Lunch (at Pembroke College)
If a chef wants to cook Michelin standard food, they won't go far wrong by purchasing the French laundry Cookbook by Thomas Keller. This famous cookbook is full of amazingly beautiful and intricate recipes, taken straight from Thomas' three-Michelin Starred French Laundry Restaurant in Napa Valley, California.
At Pembroke we prepare recipes from many cookbooks, however the French Laundry Cookbook is the book we turn to for special events, such as today's Round Table Lunch, hosted by The Master.
Last Night's Vegetarian High Table Dinner (what you missed!)
Last night's High Table dinner was vegetarian (in keeping with the College's decision to make Monday night's dinner a 'meat-free' occasion ) and featured the same menu we had planned to serve Formal Hall. Unfortunately, we had no takers for last night's formal dinner, so only the Fellows enjoyed the wonderful feast that followed!

Last Night's Formal Hall 11/11
We began last night's dinner with a beetroot and goat's cheese tart garnished with caramelised red onions and reduced balsamic. The goat's cheese was lightly whipped and flavoured with fresh thyme and lemon.
