N25 Caviar Experience - JAN x Ikoyi

N25 Caviar Experience - JAN x Ikoyi

London, Sunday 6th October: Chef Jeremy Chan of two Michelin-starred Ikoyi will welcome N25 caviar and Munich based Chef Jan Hartwig of three Michelin-starred JAN, for an exclusive seasonal lunch and dinner collaboration. 

As Chef Ambassadors for N25 caviar, these two celebrated chefs and their acclaimed restaurants are brought together to create a series of outstanding dishes that optimise the potential of autumn’s micro seasonal produce, showcasing a select range of caviar varieties highlighted by N25’s craftsmanship. 

Chef Jan’s cooking is one of intuitive creativity, reinterpreting and translating the very DNA of German cuisine with complex intricacy.  Jeremy’s is viewed through a signature lens of bold heat that harnesses flavour highs, innately using spice to weave together complexity and concentration of flavour with often overlooked ingredients in terms of context and culture. The combined result promises an exceptional menu of intricately designed and impeccably crafted dishes that meld two of Europe’s most acclaimed culinary minds in a one-day-only celebration of season, produce and caviar.

The lunch and dinner will be priced at £400 per person with an optional wine, sake, or tea pairing also available on request. 

Seats for both lunch and dinner are limited and will go live on Sunday, 1st September, via the Ikoyi website here.
