An intimate chef’s table dining experience built around fire, storytelling and unique ingredients.

Hosted by chef and founder Mark Andrews, this experience is designed for private groups of up to 8 guests and held at a venue of your choice. Mark serves a multi-course tasting menu of his signature hyper-seasonal dishes cooked over open fire, with paired wines and seasonal wild cocktails introduced along the way.

the EXPERIENCE

Fire crackles and smoke drifts as each course is prepared in front of the guests. Small plates and yakitori-style skewers are cooked and served straight from the fire. Think meat sizzling over hot coals, roasted shellfish, autumn truffles, wild mushrooms, a glass of chilled white - the experience unfolds naturally around the table.

Hosted by Mark, the experience draws on his years of travel, outdoor cooking and time spent exploring in wild places - the inspiration behind many of the dishes and stories shared at the table. The menu is accompanied by a considered selection of wines and wild cocktails, made using house-crafted syrups and seasonal infusions.

The Dining Experience can be hosted in a range of settings - from your garden at home or a holiday rental, to a woodland or other outdoor space with the right access. FIRE + WILD is known for hosting experiences in wild locations, and can help advise on, or source, a suitable venue for those looking for a more immersive setting.

THE MENU

Dishes are inspired by the changing seasons and the landscape — native plants, fungi, fresh-caught fish and ethically sourced game sit alongside local produce. Each dish reflects a connection to place and to fire, with many ingredients sourced through foraging, fishing and hunting. The menu is created by Mark and revealed to guests on the day, explained as each dish is served. While a small number of preferences can be discussed in advance, the menu is intentionally not bespoke.
