Chef Nathan Sasi (ex Rockpool) has designed a sharing menu that takes our palatte on a global journey with spices from Spain, Middle East and Africa, while still maintaining his focus on the freshest seasonal local produce. Everything is designed to be shared, and each section of the menu is stylished categorized with Peruse, Bite & Devour and Savor.

Vogue E+T Champagne dinner

While others are commited to “dry-July”, it’s actually my favorite month for drinking as it is laiden with Champagne events. Last year, it was the fantastic events during Dom Perignon week, and this year didn’t fail to disappoint.

elBulli – The tasting menu

The 34 course tasting menu is a theatrical affair. At times, Ferran’s humour will make you laugh; it will surprise you when the unexpected jumps at you; At other times, it will shock, questioning the norms you are once used to. The culinary journey you embark on is full of emotion and new experiences.

elBulli – Introduction

Like the butterflies you felt in your stomach after your very first kiss, A meal at elBulli was equally similar to those once in a lifetime experiences that leaves you reminising for that one moment, hoping it lingers on. One doesn’t have to describe too much when the name elBulli comes up. It is famous for being the best restaurant in the world, for the third year in a row according to the San Pellegrino’s top 50. It has also been holding a 3 Michelin star rating since 1997. I’m about as mathematical as an asparagus but even then I knew the chances were very slim.
