Overview

What do you get when you combine two restaurants that love fresh food, funky wines and Asian fusion? You get K-Town Shik, which will take over Supernormal Canteen on Sunday November 25.

For this one night dinner, Supernormal Canteen's head chef Tim Stapleforth will join forces with Restaurant Shik's owner, chef and sommelier Peter Jo (Berta, Momofuku Seiobo, Belles Hot Chicken) — better known in the industry as 'Kimchi Pete'.

The seven-course feast focuses on the Korean flavours that Jo is known for. Expect a party atmosphere, pumped up tunes and a menu that features seasonal, produce-driven dishes. Think raw bar items, hibachi-fired ssam chilli sauce and, as expected, heaps of kimchi. Alongside the meal, patrons can purchase low intervention and one-off natural wines that are the custom at both Restaurant Shik and Supernormal Canteen.

It'll cost you a relatively reasonable $85 per person, with sittings from noon–8pm. Spots can be reserved online — but this event isn't one for those with dietary restrictions, so be sure to call ahead if you have any questions on that front.
