Now that the first supperclub is out of the way, I can’t wait for my second! I have been ruminating over the menu and have decided to focus on a style of cuisine that I admire fantastically – ever since having been in Mexico a few years back. My menu is inspired by traditional Mayan and Aztec flavours of Mesoamerica. “Inspired” being the operative word as, although I adore the flavours and dishes I was lucky enough to taste in Mexico (mole, atole, pozole), I can’t help playing around with ideas. In fact its no fun if I can’t. Anyway, please see below for details and let me know if you can make it.
