Who Is Appearing?
Soushi – 19th April
Soushi chef Brett Mills first fell in love with food aged 12 when working as a wash-up. He spent the majority of his teen years working in Australia and at 19 found his mojo in the shape of a Thai restaurant. The head chef was Japanese and over the following 3 years taught Brett the ins and outs of Thai and Japanese cooking.
In 2002 Brett embarked on a worldwide journey travelling extensively across South East Asia and Continental Europe picking up local knowledge and recipes.
His inspiration comes from clean, fresh food made beautifully and is a firm believer that we eat with our eyes – hence working at Soushi being a perfect match, food doesn’t get much fresher than sushi.
Every dish Brett prepares has the influence of those early days working in the Thai kitchen. “Crisp, clean and abundance of flavour and looks the bomb…”

Poco Culina – 15th June
“Wandering the Western Mediterranean” 15th June 2019
The Magreb – The North African countries of Morocco, Tunisia and Algeria and the Iberian coastline have a chequered and colourful history. Located along the Western Mediterranean, they were very much at the heart of a busy, ancient trading and shipping route. They have been variously invaded and colonised by ancient Romans, Phoenicians and Persian Caliphates. The abundance of fresh, beautifully cultivated fruits, vegetables and grains together with a myriad of cultural influences have been inspirational to generations of chefs.
Join Poco Culina on a six course wander in the Western Mediterranean. During the evening we will tempt and delight you with a creative selection of plates drawing from the warmth and depth of North African cuisine and the vibrancy of South Western Spain.
Expect a stunning variety of vegetables, grains and fruits creatively cooked with authentic spices, herbs and dressings – served with typical Poco imagination and flair. We promise not to ignore the Spanish love of chocolate either!! Looking foward to your company.
Rubols Fusion Kitchen – 16th August
