Young Turks proudly present ‘The First Dinner’
On Sunday 19th December 2010, an art gallery, a wine shop and three top chefs will come together to bring you The First Dinner from Young Turks…
Young Turks is a three-way collaboration between gallery Art Work Space, independent wine merchant Bottle Apostle and three of London’s most exciting chefs. For one night only Isacc McHale from Elliots, James Lowe of St John Bread & Wine and Tudor Road’s Ben Greeno will serve up a fivecourse dinner with cocktails, canapés & wine for £85 per person.
Although the menu is still being crafted, Young Turks promise the food will have a festive feel. All ingredients will naturally be of the highest standard and cooked to perfection and each will be paired with carefully selected wines.
Art Work Space Gallery at The Hempel David Wightman’s art will be on show. The venue for Young Turks will be Art Work Space, an art gallery covering the entire lower ground floor of 5 star hotel, The Hempel. Art Work Space opened in late 2009 and has kept its initial promise to showcase the very best of international emerging talent.
There will also be a show of work at the dinner in this impressive space from British artist David Wightman, entitled Secret Name. All of the wines will come from the acclaimed Bottle Apostle shop in east London. Since opening 18 months ago they regularly hosts food and drink events, weekly tastings and offer 32 wines to sample, buy and adore daily.
Set in the salubrious Craven Hill Gardens, the entrance to Young Turks will be through the main reception to one of London’s original boutique hotels. Guests will be asked to arrive at 6.30pm for cocktails and canapés, dinner 70 people will be served banquet style from 7pm.
