If you think we have experienced all supper clubs, wait till you hear this! EatAbout’s concept is to eat out at a professional private chef’s home (some are Masterchefs, others Michelin star and others super enthusiastic and accomplished cooks) with a group of friends, no strangers allowed. There are a variety of menus and price range to appeal to everyone.
EatAbout is essentially a new alternative to restaurants. The chefs serve delicious dishes made with fresh locally sourced ingredients. You’ll love the food, and because we cut out traditional overheads, you’ll like the prices too. With 27 chefs on their books, they have hosted over 100 people in our first four weeks, and the reviews have been very positive indeed!
I had the opportunity to have a very intimate dinner with four larger than life and incredibly funny London-based bloggers I already knew and try the London Lobster and seafood feast.
The location was in Central London and very convenient to get to. Felix and Philip, the young founders of EatAbout, welcomed us to their home and hosted us with flair and grace. Felix cooked the food while Phillip successfully controlled and entertained us in the dining room.
The dinner
Oyster Bar
6 Whitstable Oysters served with Mignonette sauce and lemon
 |
| Lobster Thermidor |
1/2 Lobster Thermidor – I love a lobster, and this one was sensational!
Served complete with a Bechamel cognac sauce and Gruyère cheese.
 |
| Saffron Fish Soup |
Saffron Fish Soup
A creamy saffron fish soup with salmon, cod and shrimp served with fresh bread. The secret recipe by Felix and his dad – my favourite dish of the evening – so much so I was looking around to get some more!
Dessert – sweet, light and simple – perfect finish!
Warm Apple, Rosemary and ice cream
There’s something adventurous to eat with strangers at a pop-up restaurant or a supper club. But at times is just super to have an intimate dinner with friends and to have the luxury of a private chef doing all the hard work before, during and afterwards. It was an exceptional experience!
Thanks to the lovely ladies Tash, Alex and Lauren for the laughs and great company. Felix and Phillip for the beautiful food – great hosts.
Disclosure: I was a guest of EatAbout for a complimentary private dinner with London-based food and travel bloggers to review their service. We had a blast!
Oh wow, what a fab concept! You are one lucky lady: that meal looks like my cup of tea from start to finish!
Oh wow what an interesting concept and this food looks truly divine!

This looks utterly amazing. I am a big foodie and would love this. Unfortunately I like in South Wales so I doubt this would happen here but I live in hope!
What a great idea. It would be like being a guest on Come Dine With Me except you don't have to return the favour.
