You join us as we embark on our next ‘journey’ we are off to Japan to experience some of the most exquisite dishes, maintaining authentic fresh flavours whilst delivering on that modern edge. This cuisine oozes bold eye-catching colours and light mouth-watering taste sensations. From the zings of the citrus notes and the freshest seafood to the richness of umami packed ingredients. The Japanese cuisine really has all foodie areas covered.

Each course is carefully paired with a glass from the famous wine house of Cloudy Bay. One of Cloudy Bay’s Vineyard Marlborough has a diverse terrain, parcels closer to the Wairau River have stony, sandy and free-draining soils ideal for the iconic Sauvignon Blanc. Further south of the river in the Southern Valleys, the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay vineyards love the heavy clay-based soils.

ALEC’S ‘TRAVELS’ TO ITALY

In Partnership with Ruggeri

FRIDAY 7TH APRIL
DINNER STARTS AT 7:30PM
£95PP

We are kick starting our Food & Wine series in Italy, one of the greatest food cuisines craved by all. The simplicity of the ingredients used to concoct some of the most elegant but also heart-warming dishes. From the freshest juiciest San Marzano Tomatoes to the extensive range of succulent seafood, the Italians really have it all.

In the words of Federico Fellini ‘’The key to everything is the quality of the ingredients, that is what it comes down to and that is what Italian cuisine is all about’’ 

Each course is carefully paired with Ruggeri Prosecco. House of Ruggeri produces one of the finest Prosecco, from the grapes grown in the splendid hills of Valdobbiadene. This area enjoys a unique blend of climate, soil, and exposure. A distinctive trait is so strong and significant that it has been adopted as a symbol of the winery itself.
