Le Drunch

by Andrew on March 8, 2013 in Eating Out with No comments

maille_le_drunch‘Le Drunch’ is the latest foodie trend emerging from the culinary capital of Paris. The institution of Brunch has now found itself a new rival as more Parisians are choosing to eat later at the weekend, at a time that sits between lunch and dinner. Commonly known as “Le Drunch”, this new dining occasion is being enjoyed across the city, both in bistros and Parisian homes.

This Spring, premium French brand Maille will introduce Le Drunch to London.

Championed by two Michelin-starred Chef HélèneDarroze, Maille will be serving an exclusive Le Drunch menu at the Maille Boutique in Spitalfields Market from 15th-24th March.

Created exclusively for Maille, Darroze’s Le Drunch menu has been designed for those wanting to share delicious French-inspired cuisine that is easy to re-create at home.

Described by Time Out Paris as ‘a lunch-dinner hybrid’, Le Drunch is the perfect way to spend a leisurely afternoon enjoying delicious dishes with family and friends. From today, food lovers across London can book one of a handful of exclusive sittings where they can experience Le Drunch, courtesy of Maille.

HélèneDarroze, ambassador for Maille’s Le Drunch said

“As a chef and mother working in Paris, I have noticed a trend towards people enjoying a Le Drunch style of dining. Dining is an important part of Parisian culture, and meals have typically been held at traditional times, so enjoying a late afternoon Le Drunch with family and friends over the weekend is a new, increasingly popular occasion.”

Food lovers can now book a Le Drunch session by visiting www.maille.co.uk. Sittings are available between 3pm-6pm for a maximum of four people. All six dishes created by HélèneDarroze will be available to sample.

Alongside serving Le Drunch, visitors to the Maille Boutique will have the opportunity to sample and buy Maille’s extensive range of mustards, condiments and sauces. Taking inspiration from the established boutiques in Paris and Dijon, visitors will be able to take home exclusive flavours including a fresh Black Truffle mustard, served straight from the Maille mustard pump.

Oyster and Chapel Down Bar pops up on Sloane Square

by Andrew on August 21, 2011 in Eating Out with 1 Comment

There’s no doubt that this summer has been the season of the pop-up, from campari bars in car parks to beach shacks on the South Bank and the good news is that it ain’t over yet.

The Botanist in Chelsea will be popping up for one weekend only, between 16-18 September, with a glamorous oyster and crustacea bar, bang slap in the middle of Sloane Square. Complete with daily performances from a solo saxophonist and copious quantities of Chapel Down (excellent sparkling wine from Kent) this has to be one of London’s most sophisticated pop-ups.

Whether or not you believe the myth that native oysters should only be eaten when there’s an ‘r’ in the month, September is widely heralded as the official start of the season and The Botanist’s oyster and crustacea bar will be serving a wide range of oysters including West Mersea pearls, Brown Sea Island Dorset rocks and Duchy natives.

Individually priced at £2 each, you can enjoy a quick shopping pit stop with an oyster and glass of fizz or indulge in a leisurely lunch with half a dozen or a dozen priced at £9.50 and £18 respectively.

If oysters leave you cold, there’s a selection of seafood available, fresh from Billingsgate Market. Choices include poached Isle of Benbecula (western Scottish Isles) langoustines served with lemon and mayonnaise, whole dressed Dorset crab and a classic Atlantic prawn cocktail with avocado.
For those who need or want to keep a clear head, sip on a refreshing ‘Pomona Fizz’ cocktail made with pomegranate, pear, honey, fresh lime and tonic for just £3, or push the boat out with some award-winning Chapel Down Vintage Reserve Brut, available by the glass (£6) or the bottle (£30).

The Botanist’s Oyster and Chapel Down Pop-Up Bar will open as follows:
Friday 16th September 11am – 7.30pm
Saturday 17th September 12pm – 7.30pm
Sunday 18th September 12pm – 5pm
