Supper Clubs and Pop-ups with The Adobros
Bantayan Surf ‘n’ Turf Kamayan Feast in Dalston
Welcome sa kusina ko!
For a second year, I am bringing the taste of the Philippines I grew up with to Dalston, and am inviting you to join me on Thursday 20th March for a fantastic Filipino feast - kamayan-style!
"What's kamayan?" you ask. Simply put, it's eating with your hands in the traditional sharing style, off banana leaves. Think mountains of rice and noodles surrounded by a bounty of delicious food, washed down with wonderful Don Papa Rum and Tarsier Gin cocktails and soundtracked by hot beats fresh from the Philippines.
The theme of the night will be a Bantayan Surf 'n' Turf, celebrating the small Visayan island that's known for its pristine white sands, seafood and... a special papal exemption that supposedly allows the locals to eat lechon (roasted pig) during Lent and Holy Week. So yes, expect a menu stuffed to the gills with seafoods AND that Lechon Belly Roll that The Adobros are famed for.
Good food, good drinks, good crowd? Tara na, come let's join us!

When are your next supper club/pop-up/residency dates?
The best way of keeping in touch with when out next dates are, is through our newsletter, where we first announce them loudly and proudly to the world - so do sign up to the mailing list using the form below!
Can I book private evenings / events / catering?
Yes! We have hosted birthdays and Christmas parties, provided small dishes for event catering (including weddings), and even made some desserts and sweets for special requests. We are pretty flexible and open-minded, so do check out our Private Dining page for more details
How many people do you cater for?
With the supper clubs we host at our flat, we can seat 14 people maximum, though please note that we are not really doing these at the moment. With our pop-ups and residencies it depends on the venue.
I have a dietary requirement, can you cater for it?
We try to be as flexible as possible when it comes to catering for certain dietary requirements as long as we are informed in advance, so that we can come up with a suitable menu alternative. If you have any concerns, please contact us via email at info@theadobros.com.
Are you guys dog-friendly?
We certainly love dogs and have a miniature dachshund of our own (Otter!), but unfortunately we cannot host other dogs are our flat, because of aforementioned dog being an anxious little thing. As for our pop-ups and residencies, this very much depends on the venue - many of which, unfortunately, have not been dog-friendly.
