Beware of a TV company offering you a spot

I recently received an email from a TV company offering to do a piece on Sky TV on The Underground Restaurant. The sting was in the tail: they charge you, anything from £300 to £1,500.

I don't think this is kosher.

I've done a bit of TV and while they don't pay you (which is kind of a drag when it's taken up days of your time, and TV cameras and lights bother your guests, make it really hard to be efficient as a cook and host at the same time as being filmed) but you sure as hell…

Public liability insurance

I had this last year, it cost about 90 pounds. This means that if one of your guests drops dead from poisoning, falls over drunk and splits open their head on your marble table, you have insurance to cover it.

You can also get equipment insurance, legal cover and ....here's the sticky bit: cover for your staff.

Your 'staff' whether volunteers or paid employees need cover if they drop a hot bowl of soup on a guest, if they injure themselves.

This becomes quite…

A lovely comment makes it so worthwhile!

For us, this is what Clandestinos Supper Club is all about and makes it so worthwhile when you hear lovely comments like this from two previous dinner guests - Aileen and Lakota from Brooklyn, NY.

The importance of aperitif

Last night, while discussing the menu for our next event and thinking about canapes and welcome drinks, I was reading Aperitif, Recipes for Simple Pleasures in the French Style by Georgeanne Brennan, day-dreaming about making our own vin maison

or seasonal homemade wine, for everyday, that you can find in any given

region in France. Aaah, the pleasure and ritual of aperitif, both… Continue

Ode to the Pig

oh little piggy, when i see you rolling in the mud and you squeal

i must confess, hungry- i do not feel

but when i see you shaved, paitently waiting for my knife

i am filled with all the joys of life

i will take your belly for confit, your breasts to roll

your hocks for soup, a menu (in my head) starts to unfold

your head for terrine, your leg for ham

your blood for sausage, mis en plas i start to plan

you truely are the perfect animal, your heart… Continue

Ding Dong...

I have a 'reason' why I can't host a supper club right now. I have a tiny 1 bedroom flat in the middle of Manchester. Or is that an excuse? Am I just scared to open my little flat up in such an intimate way to strangers? I use the word 'flat' when in truth I mean 'me'. I am on the verge of taking a leap of faith and opening up my home and myself and it's scary and exciting and 'what if nobody comes' and 'what if it's a disaster!' and yada yada yada.

I am moving to a larger flat in July… Continue

Ning group charges.

As you may have seen Ning is going to start charging to have this network. I haven't yet found a better network and in line with my policy of encouraging others I'm willing to pay the fee. I will consider whether or not to charge supperclubs a nominal amount in the future.

Since January 2009 when I started, as the pioneer in terms of reporting, documenting and starting my own supperclubs, I have worked hard not just to promote what I do, but to bring the movement along as a…

Jim Haynes @ Fernandez and Leluu

I was thrilled when I first heard that Uyen and Simon would be hosting the Jim Haynes’ After Eight Party at one of my favourite supper clubs. I was delighted for them as it confirmed what I have been saying since I started The London Foodie – that … Continue
