Top chefs host cooking experience for food enthusiasts
Taking place at the Bella Vita Academy (London) this autumn (4 October), the event will see guests partake in a live, interactive cooking and fine dining experience alongside chefs:
- Anthony Raffo, Auberge du Lac
- Daniel Britten, private Cordon Bleu chef
- Lorna Nanda Gangotra, winner of BBC’s Big Family Cook Off
- Chris Terry, Baxterstorey executive group hospitality chef
- Dave Pigram, executive chef of David Pigram Bespoke Dining
With taste ‘being the common interest among guests,’ the event aims to “inspire and delight with good food that pushes the boundaries,” using seasonal, foraged ingredients; unusual cooking techniques; and ‘adventurous’ flavour combinations.
London Kitchen Social founder, Majella O’Connell, commented: “After an assignment at San Sebastian Gastronomika (Spain), I was inspired by seeing queues of eager chefs waiting in line to see their favourite chefs and actually get to taste their food.
“I then had this very bonkers idea to hold a similar event.
“Luckily for me, Dave (Pigram, business associate) saw something in my idea and pledged his support. We are incredibly excited about this unique event.
“We finally decided to put some plans into action and hope the event will be popular with chefs, food lovers and suppliers, who really want to see and taste how ingenious the dishes created are.”
The event is just one of many from London Kitchen Social, which hopes to provide inspiration and support for up and coming chefs.
