Cuisson’s Pop-Down, a unique gastronomic experience in London

London has introduced a new interactive dining option called POP-Down. POP-Down is luxury gastronomy team Cuisson’s brainchild, and is expected to stay open in the evenings from Thursday to Saturday throughout the summer. If you’re looking for an innovative way to have your supper, POP-Down is an excellent choice. It has veered away from the traditional summer club design to provide high-end dining at fairly low costs, and offers a fantastically unique menu that is sure to satisfy any guest.

The summer menu consists of four inventive courses starting with Cuisson’s signature cocktail. The gastronomy team is comprised of chefs with experience in the world’s premier restaurants. Using their expertise, Cuisson has created an incredible menu that mixes classic French cuisine with modern cooking techniques.

We loved the playfulness Cuisson has applied to its courses, which are purposely designed this way to offer customers a truly unique eating experience. To make things more interesting, Cuisson plans to transform its four-course menu every month to keep customers surprised and entertained.

The venue is the Borough Barista, an indie coffee shop in St. James will host POP-Down in its basement. It’s large, airy space that is just intimate enough to produce a truly interactive dining experience. The Cuisson chefs interact with the guests, and the guests themselves can see the professionals at work through the open kitchen design. The Cuisson team will show the POP-Down patrons their unique techniques and encourage them to plate the courses together.
