Description: Come along and join us at Cafe Mao for an evening aimed at helping us forget about our pressures and stresses, at least for a few hours!
Before our meal, we are very lucky to have the services of an expert who will demonstrate the art of cocktail-making. We will, of course, have ample time afterwards to sample the results of his labours and decide on our own personal favourite before sitting down to enjoy once again the culinary delights offered by Cafe Mao!
