A new immersive dinner party event is coming to Cabot Circus next month. Created by Bristol chef Hugo Harvey, who has worked in Michelin-star restaurants and is the former head chef of the Pony and Trap near Bristol, guests will be able to enjoy a six-course taster menu alongside drinks and DJ sets at the Old Friary Building. 'Dubs and Plates' will take place on September 28 and is a five-way collaboration by Bristol creatives, chefs, wine makers and sound system operators.
The event aims to deliver an "immersive dinner party of outstanding quality." The tasting menu will be created by Blasé, who hosted a pop-up seafood restaurant in the same venue earlier this year. Described as a "super rare event", tickets cost £75 per head and guests must be 18+.
