Supper Club

Held in the Wine Room and Eaves, our Cafe Paradiso Supper Club invites informal, fun and downright delicious gatherings!

We are serious about eating and drinking, but you don't have to be. Just like the Cafe Paradiso menu, we will be searching out the best local, fresh produce to bring to you the most imaginative dishes from our talented Cafe Paradiso Crew.

Supperclub evenings are priced at Ł45 per person (incl. wine) and start at 7.00pm

New for 2008:

* Wednesday 7 May: SPRINGTIME IN DEVON
Discover why Devon is the ‘Tuscany of England’. From shore to shore Devon is bursting with passionate producers and wild food. Head Chef works closely with local farmers and foragers to bring an intimate touch to a menu tailored with pride. Wild garlic, purple sprouting broccoli, spring lamb & chef-caught spider crabs are but a few of the season’s early gifts. Come and get in touch with your environment!

**Friday 23rd May: THE BEST OF THE BEST SUPPERCLUBS!!
This Supperclub is all about the best starters, mains and desserts from a combination of Supperclub menus over the last couple of years. Chef has chosen a selection of the best courses and we thought it would be fun for you, our Supperclub regular guests, to decide the menu for the night!
Priced at Ł45 per head. Wine included with arrival drinks at 7pm.

* Wednesday 4 June: NOSE TO TAIL
Not for the faint hearted! Waste is a mortal sin and cooking nose to tail ensures your mansion in heaven. Come and delight in the heady flavours of the ‘nasty bits.’ Cheeks and tails, marrow and ears. It will be a delightfully efficient and deliciously varied evening sure to spark the conversation as Chef proudly makes use of every scrap as God intended. Thank-you Chef Henderson of St. John Restaurant, you gave us all the courage to educate and consume.

To join us at the table on a Supper Club evening, please telephone 01392 281000 to book your place.

(Please note: all events start at 7pm and need to be pre-booked and paid for in advance. You will be joining up to 20 other guests around a private table. Tables are not booked on an individual basis.)
