Friday Night Pop-Ups
Friday,6 November
Embers: Food By Fire
with
Chef Dale Keith
From the open-air hearths of the Mediterranean, spit-roasting has long been at the heart of seasonal feasts, old traditions and the simple pleasure of gathering around good food.
An ancient art that demands hours of patience & a watchful eye. It is the ultimate expression of hospitality — a labour of love, made to be shared.
We’re bringing the art of the slow spin to Alexia with food by fire, a two-part dinner series celebrating the beauty of slow food cooked over open flames by pitmaster Dale Keith — part chef, part alchemist of fire, smoke, sizzle and crackle...
Part one: Greece.
A journey to the heart of Greek tradition arni sti souvla, where lamb turns slowly over the fire, preparing for a gathering of hungry guests.
Elemental cooking. Generous feasting. A little fire-fuelled theatre.
Follow the smoke to Alexia.
