About this Event
Following a strong UK debut with Douglas Balish, UK Hotel Chef of the Year, four AA Rosettes, LEBA comes to London for the first time.
For dinner No. 13, we're working with Marcus Clayton, winner of the S.Pellegrino Young Chef Academy UK & Ireland competition. Marcus's winning dish was entirely vegetable-based, not as a compromise, but as a conviction. His cooking is rooted in provenance, seasonality, and a belief that ingredients handled with real skill don't need anything else to be extraordinary.
For this evening, Marcus has been given complete creative freedom. One brief only: plant-based. What arrives on the table will be entirely his.
Fascinating combinations, interesting techniques throughout - I think Marcus has put together something really special. The entire menu has been designed to be gluten-free.
Allergens present: soy, almonds and pistachios.
