While London has many excellent restaurants adhering to Slow Food principles such as using local, artisan produce, dining at a secret underground restaurant takes the Slow Life principle perhaps a step further by making eating out a much more intimate social experience, connecting random strangers through a joint love for food.
Underground suppler club, The Secret Ingredient, which is located in London’s Newington Green illustrates this perfectly. Musician and food lover Horton Jupiter serves up home-made Japanese delights every Wednesday and Thursday evening.
Total strangers – Londoners as well as visitors from around the world – share this unique dining experience and sit together in Horton’s living room as he serves a menu of vegetarian treats such as braised shiitake mushrooms, seared broccoli and fruit with white miso dressing. Diners can bring along their own drinks if they like.
From £20 per person plus tip.
