Papadeli supper nights really are special nights. Quite hard to explain or describe... They're pretty unique - a gathering of up to 40 people who all love food and they all get together for an aperitif in the beautiful deli whilst mouthwatering canapes are handed round. I always marvel at how, by the end of this short aperitif time, everybody seems to know each other and the place is buzzing.
Then everyone sit down and just enjoy themselves. The only decisions that have to be made are what to drink next and how much to eat. The food just arrives. Beautifully made, with all the tastiest, best ingredients. The atmosphere really is lovely - I generally don't like that word but it does describe these evenings so well. Lots of chat, lots of laughter, lots of delight. The last one, British night, offered the most wonderful dishes local to here and further beyond.
The next is really exciting - we'll be looking at Northern Italy and tasting some of their delicious foods. Take a look at the menu and see what you think!
