Fancy a taste of the exotic but no time to leave the country? An innovative new series of immersive events will launch this year, combining food from one of London’s most exciting young chefs with music, cocktails and a little creative interaction. Popping up in West London four times during 2013, Mile High will transport adventure-seeking guests to a fantasy “city break.”
Inspired by the golden age of air travel in the fifties, (when legroom meant doing the twist and turbulence was a byproduct of the stewardess’ cocktail shaker) guests will be greeted by hostesses in Pan Am-inspired attire. Diners can enjoy “check-in” Campari cocktails and gourmet bar snacks, served with pencil mustaches and a smile, before embarking on Mile High’s first foodie destination: Gothenburg, Sweden.
Access to the Depature Lounge Bar will be available starting at 9 p.m. for non-diners to enjoy cocktails and tunes spun by one of Mile High’s talented guest DJs. With the underground pop-up movement already established in East London, Mile High will bring an extraordinary culinary and creative experience to a secret location in West London (which is revealed upon ticket purchase)— unlike anything else the area has seen before.
The talented former chef of Moro, Oliver Templeton will serve up a Scandinavian four-course feast fit for a Norse king. Departure Lounge smorgasbord of snacks will include: Fresh Roe, Dark Rye Sourdough served with Smoked Reindeer and Pickles. Whilst dining, guests will enjoy the performance of Mile High’s unique cabin crew, ensuring a true evening of escapism and style.
