Artichoke's special and fantastical evening, <a href="http://diningwithalice.co.uk/">Dining with Alice</a>, wrapped last week and I was supremely jealous of any and all who were able to attend. A Mad Hatter inspired dinner on the grounds of a 15th century mansion in Norwich, Dining with Alice  proved to be an Alice in Wonderland experience with a feast created by the reknown Bompas and Parr.

Guests were treated to interaction with a plethora of characters from the beloved book touting costumes were divine and regaling songs exceptionally special. Check out this video of the nights events:

An amazing idea is it not? I can only wish to see the pictures of the foods served as they are released. In the meantime, there are lots of pictures and more on the official <a href="http://diningwithalice.co.uk">Dining with Alice site. </a>
