Visit Hampton Court and see a team of history chefs prepare a feast fit for a king. The Tudor kitchens at Hampton Court Palace are famous throughout the world. In fact they continued to be used as Royal Court kitchens for a further two hundred years, feeding the tables of Tudor, Stuart and Georgian monarchs and their many courtiers. For the last five years they have been home to a fascinating research project run by Historia food archaeologists who regularly bring the kitchens to life experimenting with traditional recipes, ingredients and cooking methods. Come and see the chefs at work whilst they prepare a meal fit for a king.The first weekend of every month we will be recreating some traditional Tudor dishes in addition to our regular menu of freshly prepared food, so step back in time and refresh your senses!
