Edinburgh-based chef Roberta Hall-McCarron will be serving her modern spin on Scottish cuisine at 180 Corner on the Strand on 24 and 25 May.
Hall-McCarron opened her first restaurant, The Little Chartroom in June 2018 in the Scottish capital, followed by Eleanore three years later. She previously also worked in the city’s Michelin-starred TheKitchin, run by chef Tom Kitchin.
While 180 Corner is perhaps better known for its wood-fired pizza sold by the slice and toasties, in the evening it regularly hosts guest chefs who bring their own flair and technique to proceedings. The two day pop-up will feature a seven-course Scottish-inspired menu from Hall-McCarron:
Oyster, Arbroath smokie dashi
Ham hock dauphine, piccalilli
Pea tart, garlic, courgette, kombu, cured tofu
Asparagus, morels, roast chicken hollandaise, milk bun
Raw scallop, basil, pine nut, tomato ponzu
Lamb, Merguez sausage, buttermilk, trombetta, anchovy butter flatbread
Vanilla panna cotta, strawberry, honeycomb
The food itself will set diners back £75, excluding drinks. As far as beverages go, 180 Corner will be offering a range of cocktails and natural wines that have been designed to pair with the Hall-McCarron’s menu.
