A tunisian supperclub for the culturally curious
“My work is a celebration of the women in whose kitchens I honed my culinary skills. Mothers, aunties, sisters and grandmothers who allowed me to learn their time-honoured rituals and nurtured the love of food I have today. Tunisian women form the backbone of our country, and it is their ancestral knowledge and craft that I bring to my supper club tables; Babél is their story as much as it is mine.”
Boutheina Ben Salem
BabeldeB’s London supper club brings the rich, storied food traditions of Tunisia to the table.
Our dinners are rooted in the century old culinary tradition of Oula—a food crafting ritual shared from one generation of women to the next.
.
We serve a sharing spread in the Lama spirit-the Tunisian art of gathering-that highlights the artisanal produce hand-picked, mixed and crafted with care by Boutheina and the women of her family.
Welcome, Marahba.
