Every fable needs a table\, and every table needs a trickster.
fable opens the first chapter of a new supp er club experience on the corner of Bree and Wale.
One room. One sitting. Three courses. Three cocktails. One story that unfolds around you.
At the centre of it all is The Trickster\, your host for the evening.
Part narrator\, part troublemaker\, she arrives with the first course and never quite leaves. She introduces each plate\, provokes the room between cours es\, and turns what would have been dinner into something closer to theatr e.
You don't watch the show from your table.
Your table is in it.
The opening.
Gin's own botanical\, set and serve d cold. A first course that feels fresh\, unexpected and just a little dec eptive.
Bright\, sharp and playful\, it's the Trickster 's first lie of the evening\, and the one that tells you exactly what kind of night this is.
Paired with Cultivar
Gin\, green apple\, ginger\, celery\, black pepper & lemon.
The turn.
The room stops performing and starts eating.
Char\, smoke and something deeply savou ry underneath it all. The weight in the middle of the story\, and perhaps the course you'll still be talking about at the bar later.
Whiskey\, Pinotage\, cassis\, rooi bos & lemon.
The ending. Or something like one.
Same shape\, same tuile\, different truth. The trick is revealed just as the evening b egins to shift.
Paired with Melon Cream
Vodka\, sweet melon\, kaffir lime leaf\, cream & lime.
Each course and cocktail pairing has been created specifically for this ch apter.
Designed to move together\, course by course\, d rink by drink.
