Christmas at Carousel

Christmas at Carousel

“The award-winning culinary collective gets better and better, with ever-improving menus and inspirational guest chefs”
GQ
“If any London restaurant might be able to answer the restless and demanding contemporary appetite, it’s Carousel”
Vanity Fair
“Carousel is a foodies’ heaven”
Elle UK
“Carousel has launched the careers of dozens of superstar chefs and established itself as the place to find the next big thing in dining.”
Culture Trip
“…pioneering a new form of hip gastro pop-up”
How To Spend It
“A three-story creative hub that hosts a turntable of food pop-ups with a rotating cast of stellar international chefs”
Goop
“Chefs come aboard for two-week residencies and then spin out into a world of new-found fame. The programme has launched the careers of many young chefs…”
Condé Nast Traveller
“Most restaurants will be happy to host a residency once a month or so, but Carousel has made a full-time virtue of it”
The Times
“If it’s not one cheffy legend working this space, it’s another. For each, the week at Carousel is a chance to have a dalliance with a new capital’s culinary culture”
Vice Munchies

Carousel on Camera

Five years, one hundred and fifty residencies (and counting)… We’ve documented some of our favourite moments from over the years in glorious Technicolour.

From Niklas Ekstedt on his greatest influences to Shaun Presland on life as an Aussie “tucker f*cker”, there’s a lot to be learnt when you take a glimpse behind the scenes. Pop the hood and take a look inside…

 A week from now we'll be gearing up for @hot4u_ldn's return to Carousel. Both @matthewiscooked and @_entc_ come from the motherships of closed loop cooking, @silolondon and @lyancub respectively. Their upcoming menu will no doubt be living up to their background. Dishes such as Curds and Whey will be using surplus ricotta from our dairy suppliers to make oh-so-fluffy dumplings. Finished off with a 48hr whey reduction (a bi-product from the ricotta), this dish is truly anti-waste.

HOT 4 U is coming at you on November 3rd🔥🔥🔥 - Eddy Tejada and Matthew Scott are @HOT4U_ldn, one of the breakout success stories of this weird old year. - The duo teamed up in the early days of lockdown to scratch their cooking itch, bursting onto London’s rapidly evolving delivery scene with a weekly-changing menu of inspired originals, but an impromptu project to “stave off boredom during a pandemic” quickly transformed into a tie-dye carnival of zero waste and zero f*cks that has taken the capital by storm. Eddy (ex-St John & Silo) and Matthew (ex-Cub) are all about the good times. They are the fun, and just a little bit outrageous, face of ‘closed loop’ cooking, and as they showed us when we teamed up in August for their sold-out “dad’s BBQ”, they have a way with flavour that can transform even the most humble and unloved of ingredients into headline acts. - Their return to Carousel features wonderful things like ‘fried prawns heads, prawn tartare and chilli de adobo’, their signature ‘HOT 4 U pancake with XO sauce’ and a locally-sourced ‘sake lee ice cream sandwich’ that’s already a strong contender for best thing you ate in 2020.

🔥PUNK ROYALE🔥 Unlike any other restaurant in town, or anywhere else for that matter, Stockholm’s iconoclastic @PunkRoyale.se is at once bonkers, genius, audacious and pretty much impossible to book. And they’ll be in the Carousel kitchen from the 27th -31st of October. . Unapologetically in your face, this is a place that locks away your phone on arrival (no photos please) before launching into a breakneck polyphonic tasting menu of pure unadulterated decadence. Gilded with luxury ingredients most of us can only dream of (think lobster, white truffle and foie gras) the food is sublime – exceptional in fact – but it’s the manner in which it’s dished up that has guests pinching themselves (no, this isn’t a dream and yes, you really did just eat caviar from the top of your hand, chased down with a shot of ice-cold vodka…). Like the sound system and the smoke machine (yep), the flavours at Punk Royale are turned up to eleven at all times. It’s not for the faint hearted but then who cares? You’re allowed to have fun, you know… . . . #carouselldn #Carousellondon #carouselldn #marylebone #thefeedfeed @foodismuk #EveningStandard #goingoutlondon #guestchef #tastingmenu #londonfood #golondonfood #tastelondon #toplondonrestaurants #mystorywithmichelin #chefstable #punkroyale

 Even though @adills1’s background is in fine dining, he’s always dreamt of having a French bistro.

 Curing & Preserving for Christmas with @thebotanistgin November 28th . This year we’re hosting a comprehensive Curing & Preserving Workshop to get your larders ship shape in time for Christmas. Join our chefs in the kitchen for a morning masterclass as they show you how to cure, ferment and preserve a selection of goodies that will be ready for the big day. . You’ll begin the class learning about basic preservation techniques before popping your aprons on and putting it all in to practice. First up, will be the art of curing with a Maple Cured Trout and a Spiced Orange Duck Ham, moving on to fermenting your own Sprout Kraut and finishing off with something sweet – a tangy Rowan Berry Jam. . Once all the hard work is done, our chefs will be channelling their inner Blue Peter presenter, serving up a rather epic lunch they made earlier featuring some of the treats you’ve just learnt how to make, accompanied by seasonal G&Ts from The Botanist. . Take home your hand-crafted treats and save them up for Christmas Day or if you’re feeling generous, you’ll have a selection of homemade gifts ready to go. Get your aprons on, holidays are comin’… .

 One of the stars of @adills1 menu this week is this stunner of a dish featuring mackerel, linzer potatoes, razor clams and samphire. .

 It's going to be hard saying goodbye to #Fallachan after a week of progressive Scottish cooking from our new pal @craiggrozier.

It's going to be hard saying goodbye to #Fallachan

 During this week’s residency with #Fallachan we’ve teamed up with @TheBotanistGin to bring you a drinks pairing highlighting some of Scotland’s most flavourful foraged ingredients. The Botanist’s resident mixologist @abi_bruichlassie is behind the bar all week mixing up cocktails for you to enjoy. Originals like her ‘Make Your Own Martini’, pictured above, and her ‘Itchycoo Sour’ with berries that she and her father foraged during their summer hikes in the Highlands, are not to be missed🍸🍸🍸

This week #Fallachan’s @craiggrozier has taken plating to a whole new level, starting with his Heavily-Peated Octomore Sourdough with smoking peat nestled alongside it. 🔥🔥🔥 As the smoke floats into the air you can’t help but be transported to a campfire or a whisky distillery in Scotland. Along with the Cultured Butter Smoked over Juniper Wood this course will have you smiling from ear to ear. Fallachan is at its core a place that celebrates the wild ingredients and heritage of Scotland, we can definitely see why... . Fallachan’s week at Carousel is the first in a series of collaborations brought to you with our friends @TheBotanistGin, whose drinks pairings for this one are packed with foraged flavours from field, fen and forest that perfectly complement the magic on the plate.

 It’s been a hell of a week with our first guest chef residency since we reopened in July. Though this was @thomas_straker’s Carousel debut, it isn’t the first time he’s cooked alongside @kooze and @templetonollie ... . Back in 2010 when @kooze was a fresh faced young commis, both he and Tom worked together at @TheDorchester. Fast forward a few years and Tom went head to head with Ollie at #RumbleInTheDeli in Westbourne Grove (think Fight Club for chefs). We’d tell you who won but we all know the first rule of Fight Club... . One thing’s for sure, when his restaurant @acre_london opens its doors, we’ll be the first in line. Thanks Tom for a great week👌🏻 . Photo by @ariana_ruth

 Things are about to get wild as @craiggrozier of #fallachan joins us in the kitchen next week... 🌿 🍄🐚 . Showcasing the abundance and variety of extraordinary produce that Scotland’s natural larder has to offer, Craig’s residency is the first in a series of collaborations with some of the most talented forager-chefs from around the British Isles. Celebrating the endless creative possibilities of wild ingredients, the series is brought to you in partnership with our friends from @TheBotanistgin . Add to that some pretty epic drinks pairings from The Botanist’s @abi_bruichlassie – think ‘Itchycoo Sours’ of rosehip, orchard fruit and zing, and peachy and tannic ‘Nettle Gimlets’ – and you have all the makings of an unforgettable dining experience. . . . #carouselldn #londonchef #londonchefs #londonbylondoners #londonist #londonrestaurant #thingstodolondon #timeoutlondon #comesayhi #thebotanistgin #foragedfood #foragedflowers #forage #foragerchef #scottishgin #cocktailsofinstagram #cocktailpairing

 Introducing the latest addition to our guest chef line-up: @adills1 ⭐️⭐️ - 𝐏𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐫 /adj./ 𝑄𝑢𝑖 𝑒𝑠𝑡 𝑑𝑒 𝑐𝑜𝑢𝑟𝑡𝑒 𝑑𝑢𝑟𝑒́𝑒 . 13th - 24th October . Loosely translated as ‘here for a good time, not a long time…’, Passager is just the kind of unmitigated epicness we all need in our lives right now. . Alex Dilling’s love letter to the humble French bistro marks a hotly anticipated return to the kitchen for the culinary superstar, following the sad closure of The Greenhouse earlier in the year. Taking control of the kitchen at the Mayfair institution in August 2018, Alex swiftly gained two Michelin stars with an extraordinary menu that became a byword for meticulousness, precision and luxury. Exactly what you’d expect for a chef who’s worked under, and alongside, the likes of Alain Ducasse, Didier Elena and Hélène Darroze. . Highlighting some of his favourite products from around the UK and France, including Fine de Claire oysters and Brittany pigeon, Alex’s Carousel menu de courte durée (just two short weeks) reveals a new side to his repertoire, showcasing a love and deep respect for classic bistro cookery and a lifelong obsession with really great food. . 📸: @joakimblockstrom . #carouselldn #michelinstar #londonchef #londonchefs #weekendfood #londonbylondoners #londonist #londonrestaurant #thingstodolondon #timeoutlondon #comesayhi #londonwinebar #restaurantgarden #marylebone #alexdilling #frenchcuisine

*PICKLING LIKE A BOSS* . 10th October, 11am - The latest in our series of seasonal workshops sees our chefs looking ahead to the colder winter months when the taste of wild English strawberries and home grown tomatoes has long since faded from our lips. Join us in the kitchen as we show you how to pickle, preserve and ferment your way through the last of the summer’s produce and keep your larder stocked up with vibrant, intense and easy-to-achieve flavours in time for root veg season. . Pickle fiends will learn a range of preservation techniques, from the surprisingly simple to the suitably ambitious, starting with herb vinegar, made from leftover parsley stalks, and moving on to tart damson jam, lip-smacking cordials, banging chutneys and sour AF piccalilli using leftover seasonal ingredients like blackberries. The guys will also talk you through what to do with your new store cupboard staples, showing you how to turn even the simplest snack into an out-and-out winner worthy of your best friend’s Instagram feed. Don’t believe us? The workshop ends with a refreshing seasonal G&T from @thebotanistgin a here’s-one-we-made-earlier lunch to show you just how good things are (fer)ment to be... . . . #carouselldn #londonchef #londonchefs #londonbylondoners #londonist #londonrestaurant #thingstodolondon #timeoutlondon #comesayhi #pickling #workshops #foodworkshop #culinaryworkshop #foodism #foodislovefoodislife #foodiswhyimbroke #makeyourown
