Unique Dining Experience at All-in Kitchen

As a foodie, we love trying new dishes and, as a result, we are always looking for unique menus and interesting dining experiences. We particularly enjoy mixing entertainment with gourmet food, as tasting great dishes while enjoying yourself is always a winning combination. AIK_TUES

In January, a special pop-up restaurant was launched in order to celebrate the new season of the UK and Ireland Poker Tour. PokerStars and Jones & Sons teamed up to create the world’s first pay-by-poker, All-In Kitchen.

In the innovative pop-up restaurant, diners decided the price of their dining experience by playing poker. They could pay, £10, £5 or nothing at all, based on the remaining number of chips at the end of three hands of poker, all compliments of PokerStars.

I would say paying £10 for a gourmet three course meal with cocktail is a great deal. The three course meal would usually cost £50 per person, so it’s great value, not to mention the fun that you would be having by playing too.

The All-in Kitchen menu offered a selection of mouth-watering dishes, inspired on the card game, such as Queen Scallops accompanied by Salt Baked Swede and Bacon Marmalade, 4 of a Kind of Lamb Chops, and Royal Flush of King Crab Thermidor. You would also find on the menu a sweet dessert of 2 Pair of Pear Tarte Tatin with Pear Caramel and Ice Cream to finish off your meal. AIK_TUES 1

The menu sounds delicious and the dining experience seems unique. Due to the success of the first All-in Kitchen, there are plans to open up the pop-up restaurant again in the year. I will let you all know as soon as I hear any further updates. It would be a lovely opportunity for me to learn to play poker.
