July 17 2025: Hearth Suppers with Jess Shadbolt from King NYC - Open to All

As we continue our Hearth Supper series, we're excited to welcome Jess Shadbolt, co-founder of King - one of The New York Times' 100 Best Restaurants in New York City for 2025 - to our kitchen on 17 July 2025 at 6:30 PM. 

Under the helm of our Culinary Director, Skye Gyngell, and in collaboration with the Hearth team, the evening will bring together a shared philosophy of ingredient-led, seasonal cooking with a three-course menu that celebrates the heartfelt cooking of Hearth and the influences of Southern France and Italy from Jess' New York restaurants. 

In addition, co-founder of King and Director of Beverage, Annie Shi will collaborate from afar with the Heckfield bar team to create a beautiful welcome drink to accompany – all using the very best ingredients from Home Farm. 

The evening begins at 6:30 PM with a welcome drink, before guests are seated on long tables for an introduction to the menu and drinks along with a sharing style supper that embraces the feelings and flavours of both restaurants.
