Our next tables in Paris on May 10th and 11th and in London on May 17th and 18th will pair delicious and unusual artisan natural wines with each course. We look for the same vibrancy and liveliness in the wine as we look for in our guests. Et voila!
Three tables are waiting.
As you can see we're all extremely excited about our new dates for dinners at New Friends Table. London in April, Paris in May and Sheffield in June and September.

New Friends Table takes to the open road.
In 2012 the New Friends Table will take to the open road. We will be hosting dinners in our usual individual style at diverse and exciting tables where we can share great food, wine and horizons and will continue to host secret dinners every month in hidden Paris.
Additionally we will be holding two underground elegant and eclectic dinners each month, in the heart of old London, the first of which will be on January 28th.
Later in the year we are planning to take the table even further afield.
Happy New Year to you all.
2011 brought New Friends to our door from France, America, England, Israel,Turkey, Eire, Australia, New Zealand,

Bonne année
and Happy New Year to you all.
