01 · The evening
For the first time, we're bringing BASHA to the table. And you're invited to be part of it.
Join us for an evening of bold flavours, shared food, music and stories. One long room, plates passed down the line, strangers becoming regulars before dessert.
This isn't just a dinner. It's the first BASHA community moment.
02 · On the table
A fusion menu passed down the long table, each plate built on one of our pastes. Plus the first taste of a brand-new BASHA curry. Vegan? You get the full menu too, plate for plate.

The Table
Your invitation to the very first BASHA Founders’ Table. Food, flavour, music and community. Bar drinks are paid on the night.
The Founders
More than a seat at the table. BASHA keeps coming to your kitchen long after the evening ends. Collected or delivered, depending on where you live.
Can’t make it on 5 December?
Can’t join us on the day, but want to be part of what we’re building? Send us a message on Instagram and we’ll put together a custom package, just for you.
05 · How do you want to join?
We prefer tables of ten. Bring nine friends and the whole table is yours: your people, your plates, your evening. A different number? Let us know and we’ll customise it for you.
Come alone or with a few friends. We'll seat you together at a shared table and you'll leave with new ones.
