Chapter 13 Supper Clubs - Mad Scientist at Work
Everyone needs a small escape—something that sparks joy and excitement. For me, that escape is experimenting with food. Here’s my secret: I don’t even like ramen as much as it might seem. What I truly adore is what ramen stands for—a canvas for creativity, a way to experiment, and the perfect tool to test culinary theories most practically: by eating. Ramen has taught me more about the culinary world than anything else, and it’s this knowledge that has shaped who I am today.
Some people eat to earn money, and some earn money to eat. I hope you’re the latter because our Supper Clubs are designed for people who live to eat, explore, and connect over bold flavors.
Supper Clubs are my way of building connections with like-minded food lovers—those who share the same curiosity and passion for unique dining experiences. It’s about gathering around the table to taste flavors rarely found elsewhere and sharing an evening of discovery.
When you join one of our Supper Clubs, it’s like stepping into a food-filled TED Talk (but way more fun). Each event is different, centered around a specific theme inspired by seasonal ingredients or cuisines I’ve become obsessed with. We combine classic cooking techniques with modern approaches, always sourcing high-quality ingredients that align with our style. The goal? To create an unforgettable evening without breaking the bank. And if you leave hungry? Well, something went wrong.
Since ramen is what started this journey for me, it’s safe to say it often makes an appearance as the main course. But ramen is more than just noodles and soup—it’s a reflection of what surrounds you. Japan had an abundance of wheat, soy sauce, miso, and the sea; all of that ended up in the bowl. It’s about sourcing what’s available and turning it into something extraordinary. It’s about being thoughtful with your ingredients and bringing them to life in unexpected ways.
So join us at our Supper Clubs—where food becomes an experiment, a story, and an unforgettable experience shared among friends.
