Riga Medieval Banquet

'If most of us valued food, cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.' - J.R.R. Tolkien

When in the Baltics! London has pie and mash. Barcelona has tapas. Latvia has the Riga Medieval Banquet! This is just one of those things you've got to do when you're over here on a hen weekend. Get your fave girls together for an old school knees up with lashings of food and booze. Raise those tankards and make merry like they did back in the olden days.

We've partied our way round Old Riga and found a little cracker of a restaurant right in the middle of town, that does a medieval banquet that would even get a thumbs up from Maid Marian. Gather your merry maids for feasting and excellent entertainment from the venue's medieval crew.

'I can resist everything except temptation.' - Oscar Wilde
