The one-off evening will begin with a welcome cocktail, the White Ruby Punch, a Hoppers’ signature, accompanied by a selection of canapés including coconut and onion Pol Rotis topped with a caramelised onion and Kentish Apple Sambol, as well as Kadala Cups filled with Cashew Hummus and Spiced Chickpeas. To follow, the starters will showcase the best of local seafood, with Rock Oysters dressed in buttermilk and Mussels in a silky coconut curry sauce topped with samphire sambol and served with delicate String Hoppers.

For mains, guests will be served a Banana Leaf-Wrapped Seabass, followed by a Kentish Roasted Lamb Shoulder in a Jaffna Curry, accompanied by Tamarind Rice, Lamb Fat Potatoes, Kithul Mustard Carrots and Parsnips. Vegetarian alternatives of Banana Leaf-Wrapped Aubergine and Jaffna Roasted Celeriac Curry will also be available.

(Full vegetarian menu available on request).
