Three-day cooking weekend in Rumene Manor. September 2025

Four masterclasses, six meals in three different settings – and not just that: a wine tasting, the art of floral table arrangements, and moments of meditation. We had it all. But most of all, we cooked, baked, ate, drank, learnt, laughed, smiled and wandered (many took the chance to explore not only the park but every room of the manor too).

And although the proof is here, these photos are only glimpses of an unforgettable weekend shared with wonderful people – all eager to chop, mix, scoop, set, taste and even tidy up. The truth is, no number of photographs could capture the feeling we shared, whether in pouring rain, bright sunshine, or on a chilly evening with breakfast served by the fireplace.

For now, I’ll linger a little longer in the memories of a weekend spent in the dreamiest kitchen in Latvia.
