A feast for palate, mind and soul

We all know that food and wine are a match made in heaven, especially when a little thought is put into the pairing, but the time has now come to take this popular concept a step further and add an unusual twist. The Drawing Room Restaurant in Nottinghill have joined forces with boutique wine importer Novum Wines and artist Andrew Brooke for one night to bring you a collaboration between art, wine and food.

For one night only you will be invited to drink in and discover, both through the eyes and through the mouth, the journey both have taken to arrive in front of you, and where these sights, sounds and flavours may take you in turn. Open you mind and palate and allow yourself to be transported away from the daily grind and see what senses are aroused when given the chance. Combine this with some fabulously matched food and you will soon be in 7th heaven.

The evening of Wednesday 29th July will include bubbles and canapes followed by an interactive introduction from the artist and the wine importer, and of course, a 3 course dinner paired with 6 wines, all for only £45. Places are very limited so contact alex@novumwines.com if this sounds like your cup of tea.
