Enjoy a fermented cocktail reception before gathering at our long table for a Mexican-inspired four-course feast. Savour dishes like mole, barbacoa, ceviche, and fermented sweetcorn, all made with seasonal, homegrown produce.
Rachel and Johnny will share their deep ties to Mexican fermentation, from Rachel’s Texas roots to Johnny’s work at Mexico City’s first zero-waste restaurant. Alongside a multi-course meal, they’ll introduce each dish, sharing insights into fermentation, sustainability, and bold flavours.
