September Dinner - Cassoulet

As a result of overseas holidays, spending too much time in our day jobs and general busy-ness, a couple of months have gone past without a Gastronauts dinner.  But don't despair, we've been beavering away and now have two dinners coming up over the next 6 weeks or so.


The first dinner will be on Saturday, 24 September, with the spotlight shining on cassoulet and classic French food.  We wanted to sneak in a cassoulet dinner before the weather warmed up too much, so it's happening in just under two weeks' time.

At this stage, the menu is likely to look something like this:

Selection of canapes & charcuterie

Cassoulet

Crème brûlée
Tarte au Citron

Brillat-savarin

We're still working out the final menu, but the food on the night will be rustic, classic and French. 

If you'd like a spot, let us know quickly, as we'll be allocating seats this week.

And if you can't make it to the September dinner, our next dinner will be happening on 15 October 2011 - more details will be up soon.

June Dinner - Hola Espana!

We had lots of interest for our last dinner, with all the seats disappearing quickly.  This time it was all about Spain, with the menu treading the line between Spanish classics and more avant-garde El Bulli dishes.

I was too busy cooking to keep notes or take photos, but luckily Gastronomy Gal was one of the guests - you can read her thoughts on the night here.

We have a couple of dinners coming up in September and October - more details will up soon.  If you'd like to be a part of a Gastronauts' dinner, send us an email - gastronautssupperclub[at]gmail.com.

Hope to see you at a Gastronauts' dinner soon!
