VIRGIN Hotels Edinburgh’s flagship restaurant, Commons Club, is gearing up for a new era with the launch of its new seasonal menu and a range of immersive dining experiences including The Chef’s Table which gives guests a front row seat to experience the creativity behind the craft.
Created by chef de cuisine Emma Hanley and available for up to ten guests, The Chef’s Table experience will feature a five-course bespoke menu using the finest seasonal ingredients, all designed to take guests on a journey from source to plate. Drawing on ancient recipes from around the world, guests will have the chance to get up close and personal with Commons Club’s culinary masters as they carefully curate unique dishes including locally sourced venison to freshly foraged wild mushrooms. To complete the experience, there is also an option to include wine pairing, or a selection of drinks expertly chosen by the Commons Club talented bartenders and mixologists.
Those who know their gin from their whisky will be able to test their tastebuds through the immersive Bartender’s Table experience, which provides the unique opportunity to have a masterclass in mixology from Head Bartender, Leon Back. Guests will be invited to the table to engage and witness the team’s unmatched skills and creations first-hand while enjoying a signature house serves along the way, from an iconic Old Fashioned, classic Manhattan or even a Negroni (sbagliato…with prosecco in it? Optional, of course).
Emma Hanley, Chef de Cuisine at Commons Club, said: ‘Scotland is home to some of the highest quality produce and we’ve worked hard to create a new menu that not only shines a light on the delicious ingredients, but also gives guests the ultimate dining experience through immersive events and timeless dishes that will continue to evolve with the seasons, allowing guests to have new experiences throughout the year.’
Under the direction of Edinburgh-born Executive Chef, Steven Wilson, the Commons Club is also launching a new seasonal menu which will showcase the very best and freshest produce straight from Scotland’s local larder.
