Description

Outrageously Good Kate Nash

This is the innovative, fun and utterly delicious cookbook from Londons premier supperclub.
For a fixed price and a bottle of wine, people all over the world are sitting down in the homes of strangers to enjoy a lovingly prepared, restaurant-quality dinner. From New York to London to Cuba, these supper clubs and pop-up restaurants offer an alternative experience for those looking for a new, fun and exciting dining experience. You wont find these restaurants in any city guide they are strictly for those in-the-know, if youre lucky enough to get a much coveted reservation.

Supper Club is homage to the secret restaurant phenomenon. In this wildly creative and wonderfully eccentric cookbook by Kerstin Rodgers, owner of Londons famous Underground Restaurant, youll find Kerstins inventive and delicious recipes and themed menus, peppered with her helpful hints, tips and wild experiences. Youll also be treated to Kerstins down-to-earth advice on how to run your own home restaurant, and a directory of other supper clubs of note around the world (just dont tell anyone). In few other cookbooks will you find recipes such as elderflower fritters alongside home favourites such as Macaroni and cheese.

Supper Club will appeal to home chefs and budding underground restaurateurs alike, and is a must-have for anyone who wants to experience the cutting edge of eating in.
