Each year, Krug celebrates a different humble ingredient and then invites chefs to create dishes that express their style of cooking using the selected ingredient paired with Krug Grande Cuvee, the flagship of Krug Maison. This year, the ingredient is the humble egg.
William Drabble's menu features dishes such as duck-egg yolk potato mousse, English asparagus and cured ham; turbot poached in champagne; and pink champagne and strawberry jelly with vanilla egg custard. Drabble has also put his creative spin on the aperitif with a snowball-style cocktail made with Grand Cuvee rather than lemonade.
The 'Krug and Egg' pairing menu is priced at £75 per person and is available at Seven Park place until the end of April.
