Rising to the Occasion
Join chef patron Tom Hannon, who will be dazzling the crowd with an electrifying culinary demonstration at this year’s Truro Food Festival.
If you’re wandering through Truro on Saturday, September 28th, do yourself a favour and swing by the Chefs’ Theatre at 2pm, where The Rising Sun’s chef patron, Tom Hannon, will be cooking up a feast for the senses. During this five-day foodie extravaganza, the heart of Truro will be resonating with live music, tantalising street food, and the crème de la crème of Cornwall’s chefs and producers.
And, after a summer steeped in lively gatherings, barbeques, and rosé-soaked evenings, the Rising Sun’s courtyard is now ready to embrace the quieter, cosier side of life. Kicking off in October, they invite you to their first candle lit event – a sensational cigar and whiskey evening. Imagine yourself greeted by a warming whiskey cocktail as you step into the secret courtyard garden, the fire crackling in the background. Feast on exquisite small plates, each a rich indulgence, while savouring a selection of premium cigars. All this, and you’ll be treated to enthralling tales from a cigar aficionado who has roamed the tobacco fields of Nicaragua.
Let’s talk about milestones, shall we? The Rising Sun is turning the big one-oh, and they’re pulling out all the stops. Words can barely skim the surface of what these ten years have meant to them – filled with challenges, triumphs and unforgettable memories. Join them on October 19th for a night of unabashed revelry. Expect a vibrant barbeque, an outdoor bar and the melodic harmonies of a local choir, all set in their courtyard space. It’s going to be an evening steeped in Cornish spirit and song.
As December rolls in, so does a sumptuous wintry set menu that defies the ordinary Christmas dinner. Picture this – beetroot, fig, goats’ cheese and walnut tart fine, slow-roasted feather blade of beef accompanied by beef fat carrots, dauphinoise and a rich red wine jus. Whether it’s a reservation for two or a merry party of up to 25, they’re ready to make your festive season one to remember.
Get set for unforgettable times at the Rising Sun in Truro!
