This September and throughout October, folly will be hosting an exclusive series of intimate dinners to celebrate some of your favourite homegrown dining concepts and the chefs behind their menus.
Each culinary collaboration will see folly’s new Executive Chef Bojan Cirjanic joined in the kitchen by a different guest to prepare a six-course menu. The menu, featuring two starters, two mains and two desserts, will see one dish from each course prepared by Chef Bojan and the other by the guest – with both chefs showcasing their style, expertise and culinary heritage.
Bringing a wealth of experience to the kitchen, Chef Bojan was part of the opening team at folly from 2016 to 2020 and has recently re-joined as Executive Chef to lead the restaurant, which was this year recognised by Michelin and Gault & Millau, into a new era.
With a stellar line up including an award-winning Pastry Chef, a Vietnamese food legend, a bestselling author and a truly multi-cultural second-generation chef, folly & friends is set to be an absolute treat for foodies and something you won’t want to miss. To finish the series, Bojan will be joined by a fellow Balkan (Chef Milan of 21grams) for a very special menu with a twist reflecting the culture and food of their region.
A wine pairing menu specially curated by folly’s sommelier will be has been created for each event if you want to upscale your evening.
