L'Enclume Residency at Bathers' Pavilion in Sydney
I am incredibly excited to announce my first ever Australian residency at Balmoral Beachâs iconic Bathersâ Pavilion in Sydney.
My team and I will be at The Bathersâ Pavilion for six weeks from 15 July to 30 August 2020, bringing a taste of LâEnclume and The Lake District 10,000 miles to the beaches of Australia.
The philosophy of The Bathersâ Pavilion is closely aligned with that of my UK restaurants; using the very best local and seasonal ingredients available. Head Chef Cameron Johnston will be joining us at LâEnclume in April to see what we do in The Lakes, before working alongside us again, in his own kitchen during our residency.
We will be creating a multiple course tasting menu made up of an adapted selection of LâEnclume dishes that incorporate native ingredients from farms and fisheries located close to Sydney. The crockery will be handmade in Australia and wine pairings and a comprehensive wine list will be overseen by my sommelier team, incorporating local Australian wines.
âItâs a dream to bring the LâEnclume experience and ethos to the other side of the world, and to a country I personally have a real affinity to. Showcasing what we do so far from home will be a great opportunity to engage with a different audience who may know nothing about us. Both LâEnclume and Bathersâ Pavilion are in areas of natural beauty and in destinations that are awash with outstanding ingredients. I couldnât think of a more appropriate place in Sydney to do it. Guests can expect a menu of some of our favourite dishes from LâEnclume, to include some classics, but with a few seasonal tweaks here and there according to the ingredients we have available to us.â
Open for lunch WedâSun, and dinner TueâSun, $350 for the food menu, payable at time of booking. Tailored wine pairings available on the night priced at $200, $350 and $1100 per person.
Bookings will open online via Bathersâ Pavillion from 25 February, 9am AEST. A private dining room is also available to book and can accommodate 20 diners.
My team and I look forward to seeing some of you in Sydney.
