Chef Jason Atherton

Jason Atherton was the first British chef to complete a stage at Spain’s famous elBulli restaurant in 1998. This invaluable experience laid the foundation for his unique creative style and fuelled his insatiable thirst for culinary knowledge. His flagship restaurant 'Pollen Street Social' opened in April 2011 in Mayfair and was awarded a coveted Michelin star within six months of opening. Atherton has gone on to launch restaurants in Shanghai, Hong Kong and Singapore, with plans to open in Dubai and Australia in the new year. Further restaurants in London include Social Eating House, Little Social, Berners Tavern and City Social.

City Social

Renowned Michelin starred chef and restaurateur Jason Atherton, in partnership with Restaurant Associates, opened City Social, within iconic skyscraper Tower 42 on 1 May 2014. Situated in the City of London, the restaurant features art deco style interiors, created by award winning designers Russell Sage Studios, against the backdrop of the stunning London skyline from its location on the 24th floor. Head chef Paul Walsh (previously sous chef at Royal Hospital Road) has worked closely with Atherton to design the City Social menu which features creative yet simple dishes, showcasing the best of British ingredients.

* Due to the size and weight of the elBulli 2005-2011 seven-volume compendium, the books will be posted to you following the dinner. Purchasers of 'Couple' tickets will be issued one copy of elBulli 2005-2011 between two.
