Voices At The Table No.7

Voices At The Table is a series of curated evenings of readings and performances around food, bringing together an eclectic mix of voices across the literary, performance and food worlds.

For the 7th event of the series, we’ve drawn together voices from the realms of literature, theatre, history and food to read and perform at a spectacular dinner by legendary chef Henry Harris. Seated at long tables in the elegant, 1920s-inspired dining rooms of The Coach in Clerkenwell, speakers will dine with the audience, entertaining you between courses. A self-confessed classicist, Henry will draw on both British and French influences for each dish, quite simply cooking the food we all want to eat. As restaurant critic Tim Hayward wryly put it, “Henry Harris is widely regarded as the best French chef with the decency to be British.”
