A 5-plate tasting journey through the lesser-known cuisines of the Indian subcontinent. A different region. Every week. Every month.
Born November 2024
Wednesday Street Feast wasn’t born from a trend or a market report. It came from a genuine frustration — that mid-week dining had become either functional or forgettable, and that Indian food in the UK was still being reduced to the same familiar handful of dishes.
The idea was simple: take one Wednesday each month, pick a region of the Indian subcontinent that deserves to be known better, and build a five-plate tasting menu around its culinary story. Make it affordable enough to be a regular habit, and rich enough to genuinely teach something new.
It started quietly. Word spread slowly. But it spread honestly — guest by guest, conversation by conversation, through people who genuinely wanted to come back and bring someone with them.
"I created this because I wanted to learn, not just cook. Every region we explore forces us to go deeper — into history, into technique, into ingredients we might not use every day. That makes us better. And hopefully it makes the evening unforgettable for our guests."
01
Menus are announced three months in advance. Each month explores a different city, state or region of the Indian subcontinent.
02
Book directly for a Wednesday evening. Spaces are limited to keep the experience personal and the kitchen focused.
03
Each dish comes with its story — where it comes from, how it was made, why it matters. Food as a conversation, not just a course.
04
A tasting menu at £22.50 per person. Pair with wine or cocktails from our curated list. Linger as long as you like.
Coming Up

Lucknow · Uttar Pradesh
Lucknow, historic capital of the Awadh region, became a centre of cultural refinement in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The Nawabs of Awadh patronised poetry, music and remarkable culinary traditions. Their royal kitchens perfected dum — slow sealed cooking that builds delicate, layered flavour unlike anything produced at speed. This is cuisine as craft.
Featured Dish
Created for an ageing Nawab who could no longer chew — royal chefs were challenged to produce a kebab so tender it needed none. Finely minced meat, aromatic spices, raw papaya. The result is celebrated for extraordinary softness and complexity.
£22.50 per person
Sindh · South Asia
Sindhi cuisine carries the history of trade routes along the Indus River, drawing influences from Central Asia, Persia and the Indian subcontinent. Following the partition of India in 1947, the Sindhi community carried their recipes and food traditions across the world. This is a cuisine of memory — food that bridges generations and continents in every mouthful.
Featured Dish
Crisp fried flatbread served with spiced lentils, topped with onions, chutney and herbs. Evolved from an ancient bread tradition and became the defining breakfast of the Sindhi community. A dish that carries both flavour and memory.
£22.50 per person

Why It Matters
Food is rarely just about eating. It is about gatherings, rituals, markets, festivals, and the communities that shaped the dishes over centuries.
Indian cuisine is one of the most geographically, historically and culturally complex food traditions in the world. And yet, in the UK, it has largely been served through the same narrow lens for decades.
Wednesday Street Feast exists to change that — one evening at a time. Not with fanfare. Not with gimmicks. Just with good cooking, good storytelling, and a room full of people willing to be genuinely curious about where their food comes from.
