Slow Food members Gastronomer Thomas Bean and Medical Herbalist Lara Bernays bring you an evening to enrich your life, with a fusion of carefully selected and combined ingredients, enriched with herbs and spices.

Together they aim to inspire a greater connection with food, the land it comes from and the body we put it into.
