My Hotel Cocktails
A few of the team from MWB
were invited to take part in a
cocktail masterclass by the
lovely people at Merkaba in My
Hotel, Brighton. Unlike other
cocktail masterclasses there
was no set drinks list, we got to
decide what drinks are made.
The cocktails passed around for
everyone to try and I have to say
was a lot of fun making them
and hearing the stories behind
them. The grand finale saw the
bar being set on fire to create a
dramatic flaming cocktail.
Paddle Round the Pier
This year, our firm is one of the main sponsors of Paddle Round the Pier,
currently the world’s biggest free beach and water sports festival. It runs
every year at Hove Lawns and features the very best in water, street and
urban sports as well as children’s entertainment, ‘have a go’ opportunities
and much more. This year’s extravaganza takes place on July 4th and
5th and Mayo Wynne Baxter will be sponsoring the ‘Paddle Something
Unusual’ event. Previous years’ entries have seen anything from
aeroplanes to cranes, from a bed to a shed and the only guidelines are
to make it as ridiculous, but as safe, as possible while raising plenty of
money and of course having a good laugh joining in. Mayo Wynne Baxter
is delighted to be sponsoring such a high-profile community event.
Brighton and Hove Food and Drink Festival 2015
Every Easter and for ten days in September, the Brighton & Hove Food and Drink
Festival, takes place and is the largest of its kind in the south of England.
With local producers, growers, restaurants, bars and food retailers at its heart, it’s
a showcase of the fantastic food, drink and hospitality to be found in the city and
surrounding areas of Sussex. Rated by the New York Post in February 2012 as
one of the world’s leading local food events, the festival also runs and supports
food activity throughout the year including farmers markets and the Brighton
Restaurant Association.
Dinner and dancing
The Eastbourne Law Society dinner held on January 30th at the Grand
Hotel was well attended by some of our staff including Partners Karim
Mohamed, Steven Holt and Glen Stone. President of the society Mr Robin
Bates welcomed guests to the event before everyone enjoyed a delicious
three-course meal followed by dancing to live music.
