Celebrate Burns Night in style at Plum + Spilt Milk


On Wednesday 25th January 2017, from 7pm, Plum + Spilt Milk, one of London’s finest destination restaurants, will host a celebratory Burns Night dinner, marking the birth of Scotland’s national poet Robert Burns. The annual event is a nod to the heritage of the restaurant’s name, taken from the dining livery of the famous Flying Scotsman train.

For one night only, the modern British restaurant will present a quintessentially Scottish Burns Supper complemented by Dalmore Whiskies. The four course menu, created by Chef Director Mark Sargeant, will feature an Arbroath Smokie with leek and whiskey soup to start, paired with a Dalmore Whisky cocktail, Old Scotsman, a take on an Old Fashioned with Dalmore 15 year old.

In true Burns Night fashion, the Haggis will be ceremonially piped in by a bagpiper, to be cut and served as the traditional dish of haggis, neeps and tatties, accompanied by Dalmore Cigar Malt. The main course of fillet of Mey Selections Highland beef with roast celeriac and wild mushrooms will be paired with Dalmore 18 year old whisky. To finish, a dessert of Cranachan (fruit, whisky cream and oatmeal) will be matched with Cranachan Club, a cocktail of Dalmore 12 year old, honey, lemon, raspberry syrup with a caramelized roasted oatmeal rim.

Located within the Great Northern Hotel in the heart of Kings Cross, Plum + Spilt Milk is well situated to serve Scots and Scotophiles from London and beyond for an evening of feasting and imbibing as an ode to Rabbie Burns. Kilts are not compulsory but encouraged!

 

The menu with accompanying drinks is priced at £70 per person. There will be one sitting, from 7pm.
