The project started out ago about a year back in our halls of residence. We are two students studying at Leeds uni who wanted to create something special. The first event was held in a tiny flat using three kitchens across campus due to them being so small.
People applied to us and told us why they wanted to come for dinner and we chose 6 people to come and eat three courses of culinary delights. The concept went amazingly well, the people who had never met before and got on amazingly well and really enjoyed the food. They even took us out clubbing afterwards.
We have now moved in to Hyde Park and want to expand the idea further. We are going to continue to do the strangers concept but will also be taking bookings for tables of up to 8 peoples. We do our best to create an amazing atmosphere at the dinner table, by transforming the room in to a beautiful place to eat. We also plan to expand into doing some external events, for example in the park itself.
It is a set menu of three or four courses which will change every time. We also source our food as locally as possible mainly from the Leeds markets and we make everything ourselves from bread, pasta and pastry. No shortcuts!
We are currently working out 2 initial dates for september and creating new recipes that we have written over the summer. Cover charges are still being worked out but we endeavor to keep the costs as low as possible as we do not want to turn this into a business, we just want people to be part of what we love. A secret Restaurant with a difference.
Keep an eye out on our twitter for upcoming dates.
