Food with Friends: Dinner with Sally Abé, Andi Oliver & Joké Bakare

Following the success of our last Food with Friends line-up with Tom Parker Bowles, Matt Tebbutt and Olly Smith, we’re thrilled to return on 5th March with a very special edition, this time welcoming three female friends ahead of International Women’s Day.

Sally Abé, chef, author of A Woman's Place is in the Kitchen and a leading voice for mental health in hospitality; Andi Oliver, celebrated chef, broadcaster and much‑loved Great British Menu judge; and Joké Bakare, award‑winning chef‑patron of Chishuru known for her bold, modern West African cooking and creative flair, each bring formidable talent, warmth and honesty to the table.

These three women stand as inspiring examples to so many — having carved out a deserving place for themselves in the industry, then gone out of their way to offer a ladder up to others — so it is little wonder they have become firm friends, bound by a love of food and shared values.

Over a delicious three-course meal with paired wine — all carefully selected for being representative of their friendship — they'll be sharing stories of good times spent together over food.

Ticket Options:

• Dinner with Non Alcoholic Pairing: £80

• Dinner with Alcoholic Drink Pairing: £100
