Dan sprouts up in Birmingham<br />
DAN DOHERTY, HEAD CHEF OF ACCLAIMED LONDON RESTAURANT DUCK & WAFFLE CHATS TO AMY<br />
NORBURY ABOUT HIS EXCLUSIVE POP-UP WHICH IS COMING TO HARVEY NICHOLS BIRMINGHAM THIS MONTH<br />
Celebrated chef and author Dan Doherty will be<br />
making his way to Harvey Nichols Birmingham in<br />
<strong>March</strong> as part of a series of pop-up supper clubs across<br />
the UK.<br />
The collaboration will see Dan take his unique supper<br />
club, Sprout, to Harvey Nichols stores nationwide;<br />
starting in Leeds, followed by Manchester, Bristol<br />
and rounding off the tour in at Harvey Nichols<br />
Birmingham on Friday, <strong>March</strong> 23.<br />
Sprout is a special dining experience that makes heroes<br />
of seasonal ingredients, reflected in both the menu and<br />
the space. Each venue will be decorated with greenery<br />
and ceramics for one night only to bring the elements<br />
of the menu to life.<br />
The exclusive menu will consist of a complimentary<br />
cocktail made with Silent Pool gin on arrival, followed<br />
by playful sharing plates to start; slow cooked lamb<br />
shoulder with hot hummus, fried chickpeas and pine<br />
nuts, served with purple sprouting broccoli for the<br />
main – inspired by some of Dan’s favourite flavours<br />
and European cuisines; and a delicious pistachio<br />
and orange cake with rose Chantilly and drizzled<br />
with orange blossom honey to finish. To top it all<br />
off, Doherty will be making homemade hobnobs, his<br />
all-time favourite biscuits, for guests to take away with<br />
them and enjoy at home.<br />
Born and raised in Shrewsbury, Dan started his<br />
career at The Royal Academy of Culinary Arts as an<br />
apprentice with London’s Michelin-starred 1 Lombard<br />
Street under the rigorous leadership of mentor<br />
Herbert Berger.<br />
