Quo Vadis & Friends: Olia Hercules & Joe Woodhouse
Wednesday 18th March, from 7pm

March, that most hopeful of months, and we find ourselves in the rather enviable position of cooking alongside a most splendid husband-and-wife partnership. Not just any partnership, but two of the most quietly brilliant figures in the food world - the incomparable Olia Hercules and the inimitable Joe Woodhouse. Together, they have devised a feast as warm and soulful as they are.

Olia, born in southern Ukraine and shaped by Cyprus, Italy and the UK, is a cook, teacher, activist and storyteller of the highest order. Her cookbooks, including the award-winning Mamushka and the Andr? Simon-shortlisted Summer Kitchens, have introduced a generation of readers to the soulful, ferment-rich and deeply rooted cooking of Eastern Europe and beyond. Her latest, Strong Roots, is a family memoir that also happens to contain some rather wonderful recipes. From her London home, she teaches ancestral fermentation techniques - which sounds to us like a very fine way to spend an afternoon.

Joe, meanwhile, has been a vegetarian since the age of ten and has spent the intervening decades exploring the great breadth and possibility of the vegetable kingdom. Author of Your Daily Veg, More Daily Veg and Weeknight Vegetarian, and much admired by Nigella Lawson and Anna Jones, he is a cook who understands that vegetables, treated with care and a healthy disregard for blandness, can be the most thrilling thing on any table.

Together, in the kitchen as in life, they bring spirit and generosity in equal measure.


We cannot think of a lovelier way to spend a Wednesday in March.

Martini Hour with
Wednesday 25th February, 6-8pm

For our first guest Martini Hour of the year, we’ll be heading to the bar, ordering Anna Ansari’s martini, and journeying along the Southern Silk Road all the way to Sichuan.

Anna - an Iranian-American attorney-turned-food writer (naturally) - will take over the Club to celebrate her debut cookbook, Silk Roads: A Flavour Odyssey with Recipes from Baku to Beijing.

Described by Felicity Cloake as “vividly evocative, witty and stylish” - Anna’s book, adorned with a snaking gold road, is one you are compelled to pick up. Part cookbook, part cultural deep dive, it traces ingredients, dishes and myths as they’ve wandered across continents, from Iranian walnut groves to Tbilisi bazaars.

On the night Anna presents the “Dirty Homer” - a dry martini with a splash of Sichuanese pao cai pearl onion brine, garnished with a single pungent bulb.

Come along as usual for Martini Hour from 6pm-8pm on Wednesday the 25th February.

The martinis will have the usual discount, and Anna will be there to sign copies of Silk Roads - which will be on sale next to the bar.

On Friday, we had the extraordinary pleasure of welcoming The Hendersons back to Quo Vadis for QV & Friends - eight years after their unforgettable ‘La Grande Bouffe’ supper.

We began with a platter of carrots and radishes with cod’s roe and aioli - a dish steeped in Henderson DNA, travelling from the early days of St. John, to the French House with Margot, before settling down at Rochelle, swiftly followed by deep fried tripe served crisp with housemade ketchup.

A gentle Regency-era white soup cleansed the palate. A great lover of a dashi broth, Margot laced it with kombu taken back in suitcases from a recent trip to Japan. The evening continued with bone marrow and parsley salad (no intro required), with a delicious tangle of pulped winter tomato, monk’s beard and bottarga.

Then came a bollito misto of Berkshire ham, poached chicken, and ox tongue sausage with leeks and potatoes, served with salsa verde. Because, what could be more St. John than a platter of boiled meats?

To finish, Fergus’s first pudding love, îles flottantes, tasted as a boy in Paris.

Darlings, give it up for The Henderson crew.

Much to our amusement, given the many delights on the QV bar menu, a devoted cohort of members has been lamenting the loss of the QV cheese straws, with murmurs of petition reaching our ears.

And so we’re thrilled to say that the cheese straws are back, ready to accompany your evening tipple.

Do note that each one is baked to order, so little patience is required for these beauties.

Bon snacking!

We’re revisiting a classic with Monte Bianco à la Leoni, crisp meringues with hidden Fern Verrow fruits, capped with medlar and sherry-rippled cream, and finished with chocolate and walnuts.

A QV 100 special in honour of Peppino Leoni, founder of Quo Vadis, on the menu until the end of the month, with two more celebratory specials to follow next month.

On Friday we held our annual Burns Night, complete with every tartan-trimmed bell, whistle, Tiernan, and Lee. Our ninth gathering of joyful chaos to celebrate Scotland’s dearest Bard.

We began in the Club, Rob Roy in hand, with the bagpiper making the rightful Address to a Haggis. What a feast we then had. Cold roast sirloin tonnata with bergamot dressing, kimchi, and dried shrimp blew our wee minds, peppered haggis followed, served alongside pumpkin laced clapshot. Next was suckling pig - confit and crisped alongside mapo tofu, rice and pickles.

A penultimate and particularly c***y tumble, adorned with yuzu, baked rhubarb, lemon curd and custard was followed by decorated After Eights - though most were found on the floor the next day.

Another maximalist masterpiece, with the incomparable Tiernans. We love you Lee, Kate . Thank you also to our team, and our very own .

‘Til next time x

With thanks to our sponsor .
