Burns Night Supper 25th January 2024

by | Jan 18, 2024 | blog, Events

Barcelona sees the next annual Burns Night Supper at Savour Academy, to celebrate the life and works of Robert Burns.

Hailed as Scotland’s Bard, the universal appeal of Burns’ poetry about nature and the human race comes from humble beginnings in rural Ayreshire.

Every year, on 25th January (the birthday of Robert Burns), the supper is held as an homage to the poet. You can expect traditional Scottish dishes and speeches. For a full write up of the evening itself, you can read about Burns Night here.

After a reception meet and greet, guests will be formally “piped in” with traditional Scottish music, followed by the 3 course supper with wine pairings, as follows:

  • Cullen Skink – a smoked fish chowder, served with wheaten bread (Veg option potato leek soup) and wine pairing
  • Haggis, Neeps and Tatties – lamb based dish with turnips and potato mash (Veg option for haggis) and wine pairing
  • Cranachan – layered dessert of raspberries, toasted oats, whisky cream and wine pairing

During the evening there are comical speeches and poetry readings, where attendees are encouraged to participate, plus whisky toasts. If you have a favourite Robert Burns poem you’d like to read, then this is the place for it!

So join us at the Savour Academy table on Thursday, 25th January 2024 from 8pm.

Scots and internationals are invited to enjoy a cultural pairing of Scotland’s cuisine with local wines. And vegetarian options are available on request!

Spots are limited so book yours now.

Zara Patterson

Hello, I’m Zara Patterson, originally from Northern Ireland but Barcelona has been my home since 2006. Although my uni background is in PR and Events, my natural progression in gastronomy along with years of wine training has led to sommelier accreditations from WSET (Level 2 Award in Wines) and Gremi de Restauració (Sommelier Diploma). At Escuela Hofmann I have undertaken their Michelin-star specialisation diploma in paella, to take my cooking classes at Savour Academy to the next level. For the sustainability cause, I also received my Environmental Management qualification from Foment Barcelona. With Savour Academy, I’m combining my love of creative culinary events and hosting in my favourite place in the world. I like to share original, sustainable and fun experiences; preferably with food and wine, based in Barcelona.
