Welcome back! Yes, Encontro dos Sabores is still alive. Incredible how time flies.. Once you sit down and think when the last dinner took place it is shocking, but hey, we just took a really long summer break … And what a summer we have!! Still enjoying it to the MAX

Are you curious what’s gonna be on the plate? Read the title carefully again 🙂

I know what you think, British? Great? So, as some of you know I went to a cookery school earlier this year,  in England. ENGLAND? COOKERY SCHOOL? I swear, everyone said that when I talk(ed) about it. If you dare, join the next Encontro and find out what I learned. England is often misunderstood when it comes to food. Having visited only very few places to date, I know only tiny bits.  Every region, county, city…. they all have their local specialities and they are absolutely swamped with great, local, fresh produce, from the land or the sea. And of course, some are really wierd and I wouldn’t dare to try either. For sure!

But back to the title; The Great British Menu. I am addicted with that show on BBC (besides Masterchef), every year they have this country-wide competition for a special banquet dinner and it just felt like the right name for the revamp of the Encontro series. I will single out a few of the wonderful recipes we cooked in Ashburton at the cookery school and follow the Great British Menu tradition of a starter, a fish course, a main and a dessert. But as you know, Encontro’s courses can be manyfold, a dessert is not necessarily just A dessert…

As we are moving from summer to autumn, the season will determine the products on the plate. Thursday October 1st – 6 seats are there to be given! Let me know within the next few days if you would like to join and soon I’ll reconfirm.

as always, announce food allergies or any intolerance when reserving your seat so I can make sure you only eat what is good for you! CHF 75 with & 65 without alcohol.

I am happy to be “back” again and look forward to welcoming you at the table!

Have a lovely weekend,

Nancy
