Behind the Bubble!

Behind the Bubble is a champagne masterclass run by the Champagne Dame (Kyla Kirkpatrick) and her sommelier partner, Kyri Christodoulou. The pair share interesting information and tastings of champagnes paired with a degustation meal. It's a lot of fun, as you can see from these pictures.

Roast beetroot carpaccio, goat's cheese fritter, rocket and pear salad
Pork belly, spiced apple puree, shaved red cabbage, hazlenuts
Bubbly boys: General Philosopher and Him Outdoors
