The Newsletter No.5: Catch The London Sushi Train.
Photography by Kang L
September 1st, 2010 Sushi bingeing. The final frontier. The unquestionably orgasmic delight of popping dollop after dollop of a food of an unrelentingly elegant design; low in fat, high in umami, arguably, an invention born of perfection. Some say the combination of raw fish and rice is an acquired taste, but for the converted, sushi is nothing but [...] Read "The Newsletter No.5: Catch The London Sushi Train." more
Asakusa: Into the den of sushi.

August 26th, 2010 A firm, yet genteel voice answered the phone. The line was horribly muffled as I struggled to pick out the vowels through the low, low bass. Fum.Fum.Sa.Sa. I think she said, in a deceptively Japanese accent. An awkward silence befell. “Aka …ka…” I said. “ZZZassss… ka” she said, with a quickened pace. I gave up.

Photos, restaurants, and dropping trousers.
camera guide for food bloggers-8
August 24th, 2010 I didn’t realise cameras in restaurants were still such taboo. This week I had two journalists ask me what I thought about the act of pulling out a camera in a restaurant, which some say is equal in every sense to dropping your trousers in the middle of the dining room and shouting: “Look at [...] Read "Photos, restaurants, and dropping trousers." more
Two years old.
Photography by Kang L
August 23rd, 2010 Yes I cannot believe it too. It is two years ago today, that I assaulted the internet with my barrage of hot air and vulgar food photography, which may as well be classified as taboo, and I would just like to start by saying Thank You for reading and putting up with me. So far [...] Read "Two years old." more
Trinity: Sunday Roast, meritorious for 3.

August 23rd, 2010 Adam Byatt, the thinking man’s version of a celebrity chef, and owner of the much lauded Trinity restaurant, situated in leafy Clapham. Critics adore his work, for the invention, progression and enthusiasm he has brought to British cooking, and one expects no less from a chef who had apprenticed under Philip Howard, the cerebral owner [...] Read "Trinity: Sunday Roast, meritorious for 3." more
Bea’s of Bloomsbury: The Sweetest Things.

August 20th, 2010 It has taken me about a year to visit Bea’s in Bloomsbury, but I’m glad I finally made it. This tour de force bakery, cake house, coffee & tea shop produces top notch sugary things from their massive kitchen on site on a daily basis. Needless to say, their cupcakes are superb, personally I quite [...] Read "Bea’s of Bloomsbury: The Sweetest Things." more
28-50 : Drunken memories
Photography by Kang L
August 20th, 2010 From the creators of the sleeper hit of the century, the Icelandic inspired, macaron-winning, Texture, comes Rousset & Sverrisson’s next high octane, vinely-charged collaboration, titled 28-50. The name is a geographical tip of the hat to all the world’s vineyards, most of which lie between the latitudes of 28° to the North and 50° to [...] Read "28-50 : Drunken memories" more
Twenty pounds of sushi at Mitsui, Taiwan.
Mitsui-2
August 18th, 2010 Twenty quid doesn’t go too far in London, maybe two courses. Three if it’s a michelin-on-a-budget. On the otherhand, the Taiwanese have perfected the art of amazingly affordable fine dining on half a shoe string. Back in February, I was over in Taipei for my annual visit to see how my favourite cat (seriously) was [...] Read "Twenty pounds of sushi at Mitsui, Taiwan." more

Rachel Khoo Mash-up Part Two

Guys, Rachel Khoo is BACK.

You’ll remember a while back when I put out a post about the latest secret restaurant that is being run out of the Private dining club called The Loft, belonging to Chef Nuno Mendes. Well, Rachel is now back to put together another dinner event called a mash-up which will blend and incorporate various media formats into a dinner event.

I know some of you were keen to try a dinner out at Nuno’s private kitchen and here is your chance to apply again. The event will take place on Wednesday 24th June 2009, 7.30pm and it will be a five course menu plus wine at £65pp.

If you are interested, all you need to do is RSVP with Rachel by email to mashuplondon@gmail.com. .

Places are of course, extremely limited so reserve your seat on the table now.

Oh, and I’ll be tagging along for this one as event photographer, so if you’ve always been curious about secret restaurants, there ain’t a better chance than this one. As usual, I’ve included the full press release to this post (keep reading..) and read this post about how it went down the last time. Hope to see you there guys!

Full Press Release from Rachel

Rachel Khoo Mash-up Dinner

After the debut success of her first mash up, Rachel Khoo is back with another mouth-watering installment.

The mash up* concept is about creating a dining experience for all your senses (sight, smell, sound, taste, touch). For this scrumptious supper, T. Baas will be offering a visual feast with some delectable designs and Jay-P will be tantalising your earbuds with some toothsome tunes.

This will all be rounded off with Rachel’s creative culinary touch to the 5-course dinner (paired with wine).

The festive feast will be held at the private dinner club The Loft on Wednesday 24th June at 7.30pm.

Rachel Khoo is a Food creative based in Paris. With an Art & Design degree from Central St Martins and Pâtisserie diplôme from Le Cordon Bleu, Paris Rachel brings her unique touch to culinary events.

The Loft is a private supper club and personal test kitchen of Nuno Mendes, one of London’s innovative & revolutionary chefs (El Bulli trained & previous head chef of Bacchus, London). He will be opening his next restaurant, Viajante at the Bethnal Green Town Hall in 2010.

T. Baas originally from Strasbourg but now based in Paris has been creating a visual storm with his illustrations the past 8 years for a range international brands, books and bands. He has a sweet weakness for mirabelle plum tarts too.

Jay-P when not spinning some savoury sounds in the cities Paris, London or New York puts his creative skills to producing multi-layered and heavily patterned paintings. And after all that creativity nothing hits the spot more than a Thai green curry.

Places are limited to ten people. Email mashuplondon@gmail.com. to reserve. A recommended donation made via paypal confirms your place. 5-course dinner paired with wine at £65 pp. Address details will be sent out once reservation has been confirmed.
