Lahpet, one of London’s few Burmese restaurants, is launching a new monthly Supper Club that will showcase a selection of the finest authentic and contemporary dishes from the extraordinary yet gastronomically unknown cuisine of Myanamar (Burma).

Centering on carefully crafted small plates of crispy fritters, distinctive salads, vibrant curries and fresh seafood, this all-new Supper Club will launch on Thursday 17th August, at Lahpet in London Fields.

In his thoughtfully devised menu, head chef, Zaw Mahesh, opts to use the very best Burmese and British produce available. Using locally supplied fish and vegetables to ensure that freshness is at the forefront of his creations, Zaw also utilises the plethora of indigenous ingredients that he imports directly from Myanmar. 

During the event, guests will be offered an insight into the regionally eclectic cuisine of Myanmar whilst enjoying a laid back and convivial evening. With long communal tables and bright, airy surroundings, the setting will be perfectly conducive for an evening of socialising and culinary engagement, in the heart of London’s East End.

Priced at £35 per person, tickets will include the menu as detailed below as well as a glass of house wine from Borough wines, or a bottle of Kirin lager, tickets can be purchased here:
