Description
A Diner’s Wonderland – Arrive to the sounds of the 1960s juke box and enjoy a cocktail or mocktail on arrival, followed by a four course meal accompanied by live music - very lively indeed. BYOB!
Looking for something different than traditional Christmas dinner? At this very exceptional night at The Elmore Jam, right a week before the Christmas Day come along with your colleagues, friends and family to try traditional Portuguese Christmas dishes with a contemporary master chef's touch by Pedro Passinhas and his chef trio! Accompanying the kitchen will be a live trio headed by pianist Barney Musician.
On the menu, Caldo Verde, an iconic soup with cabbage strands and the light smoke flavour from the chorizo. Originally it’s a soup of the North and more precisely around the region where I was born, the area between Minho and Douro. Very particular, has to be served with the cabbage cut in a distinctive way.
Baked salt cod, another must-be on the menu is Salted Cod or Bacalhau as it is known in Portugal is a major ingredient in the Portuguese diet. The legend goes that the Portuguese have 365 or more recipes for this dish-one for each day of the year.
Pedro Passinhas is Michelin Trained Chef, Le Cordon Bleu Grand Diplome Graduate, Creator of Modernist Cuisine, Explorer of Mutli-Sensory Eating. He believes in challenging people’s perception of food and taste. He uses unusual flavours, colours, textures and temperatures to enliven the dining experience and send your senses soaring. Pedro and his team of 2 sous chefs create an amazing cooking performance and exceptional dining experience for his guests.
Pedro about himself:
'A great dining experience is about more than just the food. My childhood memories are defined by my flavour, family and dining together, and whilst my tastes have evolved and my technical skills have grown, this sense of community still defines my approach to food.
And here’s the fun part. Before I started my cooking career I was just a little science geek. So much so that I pursued a degree in engineering until, one day, my true calling came knocking at the door. I enrolled at Le Cordon Bleu and went on to chef at some of the world’s finest restaurants led by Michelin starred chefs, including Fat Duck, Le Gavroche, Galvin @ Windows.'
