Toddy Shop Night!


For one night only we're turning Pop Up HQ (i.e. our home) into a Kerala backwater Toddy Shop.   

 

Date: Friday, May 31st

 

Time: 7:30pm till quite late

 

4 courses + Complimentary Cocktail + 

Tea/Coffee/Juice for £27

Historically, toddy shops are thatch-roofed establishments that serve toddy (a local hooch made of fermented palm wine) alongside spicy seafood curries, fried fish and tapioca mash. This is unfussy, unique and delicious food that comes from well off the trodden tourist path. 

Come join us for a night of booze, spicy seafood and good company.
