Visitor Information
Treat your senses to a five-course banquet designed to thrill the nose as much as the taste buds. Experimental Food Society regulars Blanch & Shock will take over the InterContinental Hotel's Cookbook Cafe for two nights only where, working with psychologist Prof Charles Spence, they'll be demonstrating just how important smell is to our enjoyment of food. Their creative cuisine will include dishes such as dried mallard duck cooked in dark beer, given a theatrical twist by being served on a scented recreation of the forest floor in an atmosphere of smoking branches. The Cox apple compote meanwhile comes with a guaiac wood sorbet and inhalable blackcurrants buds. An immersive autumnal experience. Visit the Experimental Food Society website for more details.
