Eddie Kilty Launches Collective Dinner Bringing Together The City’s Finest Chefs
Students from Liverpool City College will have the opportunity to cook alongside some of the city’s finest chefs, curating and serving up a tasting menu at the inaugural ‘Collective Dinner’ on 29 March.
The Collective Dinner is the brainchild of chef Eddie Kilty of Kilty & Co, a former student of the college. Joining Eddie on the night will be fellow chefs Josh Lundon from Skaus, Liv Alarcon from Queens, Nathan Booth of Panoramic34 and Michael O’Donohoe from London Carriage Works.
Chefs and students will work together to serve a selection of canapes, starters, mains and desserts at the college’s recently refurbished Academy Restaurant.
The evening will be presented by Liam Jones of ‘An Hour With An Indie’ podcast, and each course will be sponsored by a local business involved in supporting hospitality including Wellocks, Caterite, Pilla and Liverpool Food Network.
This is the first event of its type in Liverpool, bringing five chefs together to create an evening like no other.
Proceeds from ticket sales will go to So Let’s Talk, a platform which serves to support hospitality workers with all aspects of mental, physical and financial health.
Patrick Howley, founder of So Lets Talk said: “There is currently a national shortage of chefs, and employees across the hospitality industry are increasingly struggling to balance their demanding roles with taking care of their own mental health. So Let’s Talk is working together with industry leaders to support chefs, bartenders, hosts and managers across the North West. We hope that the evening will be a great opportunity to showcase what hospitality has to offer and promote our fantastic industry to the next generation.”
Tickets are available here and are expected to sell out fast.
