𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐮𝐩... 𝐌𝐀𝐋𝐈𝐗 MEXICO CITY 17th – 21st October One of Mexico City’s must-visit restaurants, MALIX is the super sleek debut project of seasoned chef Alonso Madrigal. Having worked alongside a succession of modern greats including Elena Reygadas (Rosetta), René Redzepi (Noma Mexico) and Kristian Bauman (108), Alonso opened @malix_resto in the über-trendy Polanco neighbourhood in 2021 and it became an instant smash hit Derived from the Mayan word for ‘street dogs’ and roughly translating into Spanish as ‘raceless’, MALIX (ma-li[sh]) is a nod to the way Alonso loves to cook – rooted in local Mexican ingredients and traditions, but generously peppered with influences from a multitude of different cultures from around the world. Working hand-in-hand with a carefully-selected community of local, sustainable farmers and producers, Alonso creates highly imaginative, seasonally-changing menus filled with big flavours, innovative ingredient pairings and techniques picked up through years of travelling. Highlights include impossibly delicious-sounding dishes like his ‘Chanterelles, Mussel Escabeche & Frijoles Caldosas with Flatbreads & Chintextle Butter’; ‘Squash Tamal, XO, Watercress’; and signature ‘Duck, Malix Mole, Beetroot’. We’re hyped to be welcoming one of Mexico City’s biggest hitters into the Carousel kitchen for five nights of bold, eclectic cooking that’s not to be missed.  Swipe to see the menu, along with a glimpse of Alonso's cooking at MALIX... Bookings available via the link in our bio.

 Highlights from a packed-out week in the guest chef kitchen with the absolutely brilliant @bao_la Brisbane-born Bao delighted us with a generous, everything-on-the-table-and-get-stuck-in feast inspired by the Vietnamese dishes he grew up eating. Packed with fresh, fragrant flavours, Bao’s menu included fill-your-own rice paper rolls with juicy lemongrass prawns, Sichuan pork, herbs, lettuce and noodles, plus two umami-rich dipping sauces… and that was just the starter. There was also tofu-stuffed roasted tomatoes with tomato sambal; seriously succulent Hakka-style poached chicken with confit garlic salt; tender coconut braised pork belly with fried duck egg; stir-fried rainbow chard; mixed grain rice and more… 👏 @bao_la

The irrepressible chef, author, broadcaster and self-confessed feeder has been part of the Carousel family since her very first Blandford Street residency back in 2016, so we’re delighted to be rolling out the red carpet (and her favourite green armchair) once again.

 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐮𝐩... 𝐒𝐞𝐦 LISBON 3rd - 7th October This one’s extra special. Before making the move to Lisbon with his partner Lara Espirito Santo, New Zealander George McLeod was part of the Carousel family. George’s talent as a cook was obvious, but it was his very genuine commitment to eliminating single-use plastics from our food chain, minimising food waste and doing things the right way, not the easy way, that left the biggest impression on our team. Fast forward to the present day, and George and Lara’s (first) baby, Sem (‘without’ in Portuguese) is one of the most talked about restaurants in Lisbon, admired throughout Europe for its progressive, closed-loop tasting menus that tell the story of “produce that is at its best right now; of the by-products made invisible to us by industrialised food; of the offcuts, the too-big-too-small, the misshapen, the picked too early or too late, of the disregarded roots, stems and leaves, and of all the ancient techniques, not yet forgotten, available to us for food preservation”. For Sem’s week in London, we’ll be working closely with George to ensure that we get our hands on the best of what’s in season from local regenerative producers who share their inspiring mindset. Expect to be wowed by dishes that are as awe-inspiringly imaginative as they are beautifully plated, including ‘Crayfish x Rose x Koji’; ‘Acorn x Beetroot x Walnut'; and ‘Deer Loin x Wild Berries x Onion’. Swipe for a glimpse of what to expect and head to the link in our bio to book yourself in for the magic.

 We’re partway through the week with super talent George Kataras @deonlygeorgie ‘Refined yet funky’, George’s highly original menu plays with textures and temperatures to bring the very best out of classical seasonal ingredients, with plenty of nods to his Greek heritage and his time at the helm of Michelin-starred @vanderveen_restaurant along the way. Highlights among George’s eight ‘wow’-inducing courses include his seriously succulent guinea fowl with turnips, white peach and a glossy, umami-packed sauce; sweet torched scallops in a beautifully delicate tomato consommé topped with salty pops of fresh tomato; perfectly-poached turbot with collard greens and herby lemon sabayon; a Basque cheesecake-esque Greek yoghurt cake and much more… There are still a few tables available from this evening (Thursday) to Saturday.
