Adventuregourmet
A Taste Of Culinary Excellence.....

At the end of summer 2007, a gourmet luncheon at world-famous City landmark restaurant Café Spice Namaste set the scene for the re-launch of one of the culinary world’s more ingenious concepts. Special guests including Chris Galvin, Brian Turner, Anton Edelmann and John Williams -- names behind (and sometimes before) some of London’s most celebrated restaurants joined award-winning chef patron Cyrus Todiwala, his wife Pervin Todiwala and respected food impresario Peter Hazzard as they unveiled Adventure Gourmet at Café Spice Namaste.

Adventure Gourmet at Café Spice Namaste is the perfect platform for sharing a passion for great food and more. Set to be a centre of culinary excellence at the very heart of London, adventures await in a space and concept that allows for cookery demonstrations, master classes, guided culinary tours and inter-active dining. Designed for both novice and expert cooks, and as much for the culinary neophyte as the seasoned gourmand, Adventure Gourmet at Café Spice Namaste is a response to the tidal wave of demand for hands-on cooking and culinary learning experiences in the capital.
