Here is our guide to the most sought-after supper clubs and private dining experiences in town

Since the pandemic, there has been a turn towards private dining and curated experiences, with intimate gatherings being favoured over eating in restaurants surrounded by a crowd. As a result, many chefs now cater to such needs, with rooms that can be booked out upon request, homes open for dining, or even travelling supper clubs that reside in event spaces.

We’ve rounded up five private dining experiences for your next intimate gathering, each with its own unique theme.
