This summer we welcome guest chef Tomos Parry to the Royal Academy to host a series of banquets in the Annenberg courtyard.
The iconic courtyard will hold three long table banquets, using the very best seasonal produce cooked by Tomos Parry, previously Head Chef of Kitty Fisher’s in Mayfair and winner of the Food and Travel award for Best Breakthrough Chef of 2015.
This is a rare occasion to taste Tomos’s food in the open air within one of London’s most beautiful outdoor spaces. The mouth-watering sights and smells of the open-air kitchen, with custom made grills in operation, will make this a rare and unforgettable dining experience.
Guests can expect to feast on spider crab steamed over seaweed embers on the courtyard fire pit, slow roasted turbot smouldering over chestnut and apricot wood, and aged beef rump cap slow roasted over birch and hay. The communal tables will be adorned with garden flowers to showcase the colourful dishes of fresh and flavoursome food. Each feast consists of eight dishes and includes an apéritif and digestif cocktail, plus an after-party in the Academicians’ Room and a private view of the Summer Exhibition 2017.

We’re transforming the Royal Academy in time for our 250th birthday in 2018.
Alongside an expanded programme of world-class exhibitions, our building redevelopment will reveal the elements that make the RA unique - our historic Collection, the work of the artists and architects who run the RA, and the art school at the heart of our campus. The development will ensure we can continue to meet our founding principles: to present a broad range of art to the widest possible audience; to stimulate artistic debate, understanding and creation; and offer free education to the next generation of leading artists.
Please join us in making this ambitious project possible through a range of unique experiences and support opportunities from the Royal Academy.
