Calling all adventurous foodies! East meets East at a fantastic four hands dinner with Kerth Gumbs of Fenchurch Restaurant and Thomas Lemercier, Head Chef of La Bibliothèque in Haggerston. On Wednesday 5th March, these two exciting and talented chefs will come together for one-night-only, offering a unique six-course tasting menu experience with a view 37-floors up in the iconic Walkie-Talkie building that houses the Sky Garden.
Expect an artful fusion of Thom’s French flair and Asian influences married with Kerth’s playful yet elevated approach to fine dining inspired by his Caribbean heritage in a menu that is a masterclass in creativity, bold flavours and contrasting textures.
Dishes from Thom include onion soup, with textures of onion, smoked gouda, clarified broth and Japanese milk bread; roasted monkfish, baby carrot, pickled kumquats, fermented carrot katsu; and whipped buttermilk & lemon thyme panna cotta, pear sorbet with Kerth bringing to the table roast scallop sweet & sour glazed pork belly, burnt apple purée; peppered lamb with gungo peas and mixed grains and an indulgent caramel cake with dulce chocolate, hazelnut and crème fraiche ice cream.
Throughout the evening, guests will have the opportunity to meet both chefs and gain insight into the
creative process behind this one-of-a-kind menu.
The Kerth Gumbs x Thomas Lemercier Four Hands Dinner is priced at £125pp for six courses plus a glass of champagne. A wine or sake pairing is available at an additional £85 per person.
