REfUSE Restaurant Night: Turkish food

About this event

A restaurant-style dinner with a twist: all the food we serve would otherwise have been destined for landfill. We rescue it, see the quantity and quality of food deemed 'worthless' and re-value it by serving amazing three-course dinners, every week at REfUSE Cafe, Chester-le-Street. Our restaurant nights are so popular and one of our best ways of raising funds for the cafe’s work in the community and in tackling food waste. Every Thursday, each evening has a different guest chef volunteering their skills, and they pick a theme for food.

How much?

Like a 'supper club', we have a set price of £17.50 per head. This includes a three-course meal, and you are able to bring your own wine or other alcohol. We do have a soft drinks menu and mixers available to purchase on the night. We ask for a booking fee of £5 and you pay £12.50 on the evening. All money goes towards the food waste-saving work of REfUSE.

Who's cooking?

On Thursday 15th September we have our Maz cooking Turkish food, with instructions from her friends who live there. Similar to our Greek night, we'll be serving all the summery, delicious Mediterranean tastes like harissa lamb, persian rice, mezze platters and baklava. We always have vegan, vegetarian and gluten free options on our menus.

How do I book?
