Pop up fun
We were very kindly invited to join the Hex team celebrate the end of the year. It was a very interesting and fun meal by Slippery Spoon Kitchen who do pop up restaurants and dinner events.
The first course was buffalo mozzarella, tomatoes and basil, but with an extra twist of injecting the tomatoes with one of the flavours – truffle oil, machu tea or elderberry vinegar.
Next was their ode to a tiffin box
Tikka chicken, basmati rice, yogurt, and pickled onion on a roti – super yummy
There were beakers full of broth bubbling away on top of a Himalayan salt slab on little gas burners. The next course was a smoked dumpling which the broth was poured over.
The flavour of the broth really developed as you ate it
A TV tray with steak, tuna, bone marrow mash and kimchi
We used the salt slabs to cook the food
The kimchi was something I have never had before and quite enjoyed – the flavour was very unique.
We ended with a beautiful white chocolate and Turkish delight panna cotta with marshmallow filled tulips. There were meringue pieces, popping candy and caviar sprinkled on top
It was a wonderful night out together (made possible by Keren) and a very memorable meal. A huge thank you to Stephan and the Hex team for the opportunity to join them.
