φ gets 'Scratch'ed!


Let us give you the take-home message of this post right from the beginning: that food was fucking amazing! We seriously doubt we'll be able to find a supper club that tops 'Scratch Secret Suppers'. It could be our friendly hosts, the chatty friends that joined us, the very interesting people we met on our table, the fact that it was Friday and we had a couple of bottles of vino with us, but even all that aside, the food alone was seriously exciting!
The friends we dragged with :)

φ visits the Saltoun Supper Club

"This is my home!" said Arno in a half-defensive, half-proud tone, "It's decorated with the things I love, I serve the food I love, this is my home!" And indeed it felt more like Arno had invited us over for an amazing dinner to his beautifully-decorated home on Saltoun Rd in Brixton, and less like a supper club we booked online. Arno is the artsy, talented and friendly host of the Saltoun Supper Club, and as you can see in the pic below, he has a truly impressive beard! His place is equally impressive, and every corner makes you pause with something unique you'd have to definitely take a second look at.


The Saltoun Supper Club was pretty high up on our supper-clubs-to-visit list. With more reviews online than most of the other clubs (e.g. The Happiness Project, The London Foodie), mentions from The New York Times, The Guardian and Time Out, and a short indie documentary on Arno we were intrigued, to say the least.
