If you’ve never been to a paint-and-sip session, then you’re in for a treat! Cucina Vivo’s Cork, Culinary & Colour event will allow you to unlock your inner Monet, supplying you with all of the artistic goods that you need to create a masterpiece – a canvas, a paintbrush, lots of paint and of course, some helpful instruction. Your appetite for art won’t be the only appetite satisfied during this event, as you’ll also get to indulge in Italian-inspired high-tea nibbles and a two-hour beverage package. That, friends, is what we call living la dolce vita.

Now, let’s talk all things high tea. Cucina Vivo will be serving up a smorgasbord of savoury and sweet delights to sate your senses. Kick off your creative afternoon with mini salmon panino, egg sandwiches, focaccia topped with bruschetta, bresaola, parmesan and rocket, arancini balls, and pizza fritta with prosciutto and aged balsamic. Of course, no feast is complete without a sweet treat to cleanse the palate (while you’re working your palette), so you’ll be able to dig a spoon into enticing desserts like tiramisu, cannoli, brownies and zuppa inglese (a custard-and-sponge layer cake). You can wash it all down with refreshing Cape Mentelle and Chandon drops, which are included in your ticket. To secure your spot at this creative class, head here.
