A TASTING OF DEVONSHIRE CRAB

It’s impossible to eat crab and not feel the salty tang of a sea breeze, even if you happen to be sitting in a restaurant just off High Street Kensington.

It’s one of the loveliest ingredients for any chef to work with, offering the sweet, salty delicacy of the white meat and the earthy richness of the brown.

For our supper club this month, Mark Kempson will be celebrating Devonshire crab in a cracker of a menu that showcases the beautifully balanced meat from pot‑caught brown crabs, handled and cooked with great care.

If you love crab as much as Mark does, it’s a must‑go‑to event, but as it’s held in our private dining room there are only 14 places available, so you’ll need to book early to reserve your place.

If you’ve not been to one of our supper club events before, do try this one. It’s a really convivial evening where you sit around our communal table with fellow food lovers and enjoy a great meal, with Mark on hand to talk you through all the courses.

Do join us for an evening celebrating the wonder of foraged and wild foods. There will be game in the form of Roe Deer and Wild Rabbit, river-fished Trout and Guinea Fowl. Then from hedgerows you will find Nettle Aioli and Wild Leek and Wild Garlic too and the first of the seasons delicate Elderflower.

We are running this event in collaboration with the Game and Wildlife Conservation Trust as part of their advocacy for the health and conservation benefits of wild food.This event is usually held for the Trust’s members only, but because they know our guests are very partial to delicious game and foraged dishes, they are happy for us to extend an invitation to Kitchen W8’s guests too

The evening starts with Champagne on arrival and ends with a delicious glass of Taylor’s port. Tickets, which are £250 per person, can be bought direct from the Game & Wildlife Conservation Trust. Just click the button below to enquire.
