What best than starting the weekend with a bubbling brunch?
La Belle Assiette created a beautiful dinner party which spanned over two days over this weekend. It included 100 courses served to 100 guests matched with Nicolas Feuillatte top Champagnes. They created the longest dinner party of the year in London!
I was invited to the brunch which included nine courses of some delicious food prepared in front of us by Chefs Zoe McReynolds and Christopher White at Venturi’s Table in Wandsworth. The chefs cooked continuously for 1,000 minutes, all cooking methods from sautéing, frying, blanching, boiling, to sous-viding, piping and more!
La Belle Assiette did a fantastic job showcasing how the business work, particularly since private chef at home dining, is becoming increasingly popular in London.
What a feast!
