London supperclubs – a declaration of love
I love supperclubs. In fact, they’re my first love (food- wise) in London. And as you all well know, first love is never forgotten- it may be just held back by mundane stuff like a one night stand with that latest sexy just-opened food cart, or flirting with that stunner of a “no bookings “one-item-menu restaurant. Pathetic, I know. But as the saying goes, I could never really forgot my true love and so I am catching up now. Forget my recent shameful foppish chattering about trendy places (Sushi Tetsu, anyone?) and here I come, my beloved supperclubs.
I’ll start with a list in no particular order (I honestly wouldn’t dare to rank them) – reviews to follow shortly! I intend to keep this post updated regularly with new places I try and like, but for a more comprehensive view, you can find and book most of them on Edible Experiences.
Tried and tested
- Grazing Asia Japanese Supperclub (Japanese) by Luiz – The London Foodie
- Malaysian by May (Malaysian) om the Slow Food Kitchen
- Fed by Tang Supperclub (Cantonese) from Cherry of FeedTheTang
- Discover Abruzzo (Italian- regional)- unfortunately, a one-off event which may be repeated in Autumn 2012 by the lovely host Federica at Pasta Bites…fingers crossed
My Wishlist
- +65/plus six five Supperclub (Singaporean)- going this Sunday and very much looking forward to it
- Sabrina Ghayour Supperclub (Persian and Middle-Eastern)
- Eat Scandi by Signe Johanson aka Scandilicious (Scandinavian- did you guess it? you Sherlock!
- Bonus entry: Discover Cilento (from the great cook and big-heart Federica of Pasta Bites, mind of “Discover Abruzzo”- she just tweeted about it- keep November 10th free and your eyes peeled on the blog if you want to savour some authentic lesser-known Italian food)
If you have never been to a supperclub (as I know it’s the case for some of my non-London readers), go! It is a brilliant experience even if you’re not crazily in to food, as it has so many facets- least but not last, the pickup dating socializing potential.
If you have been and enjoyed it, good for you! Drop me a line in the comments if you have a supperclub you warmly recommend.
And finally…no, I don’t care if you’re reading thing supperclubs are “soooo 2007”. Seriously, bugger off. I may flirt with trends and fads but in the end all I care about is good food and nice people and with supperclubs (well- at least the ones you find here) that’s what you get, and that’s enough for me.
This is true love, and the heart wants what it wants.
