KaiWeCare dinner



Dinner out in London at the KaiWeCare pop-up, organised by Mat Follas. A spectacular menu with 9 courses and 21 chefs, including 4 Masterchef winners and numerous Michelin starred chefs

The 'Pre-Starter' was a tasting of beetroot textures with elderflower curd


The starter was for me the best dish - a rare breed scotch egg, warm tartare sauce, pea shoots and an English quail, summer truffle and buttered kohlrabi pie

The intermediate course was saffron-poached tiger prawns with piquillo pepper salsa, sherry reduction and olive oil foam


The main course tasted much better than it photographed! Slow cooked New Zealand lamb, broccoli puree, smoked garlic puree and Olde Yorke cheese with akmonds and wild garlic jus


A fascinating pre-dessert - carrot juice 'toast' (above) to dip in an eggshell filled with a coconut jelly 'white' and a carrot juice 'yolk'



To finish a dark chocolate delice with lavender ice cream and a burnt orange syrup

All this was followed by cheese and petit fours

A truly memorable night - great food, and in all over £60k raised for the Christchurch earthquke work
