A month full of flavour: Fill up on Fat Rice and RaviOllie this April at Kitchen by KASK

Bedminster’s ever changing dining hall, Kitchen by KASK, has announced its latest line-up of dates guaranteed to bring a mouthful of flavour to North Street. With Malaysian street-food favourite Fat Rice and filled-pasta experts RaviOllie as the next chefs to take over the Kitchen. Working closely with the chefs, Bristol fav KASK will once again be providing a curated menu of wine, beers + soft drinks, in their mission to show that food + drink pairing menus don’t have to be just for special occasions. 

No stranger to North Street, Fat Rice is back in the Kitchen from Thursday 30 March until Saturday 1 April for its second residency after selling out the venue’s opening week last September. Fat Rice’s menu includes Pork Belly and Shiitake Mushrooms braised in soy sauce with steamed rice; Kunyit Fried Chicken with Turmeric sauce; and Braised Shiitake Mushrooms with soy chunks + tofu skin. The three nights have nearly sold out with only a few spots still available.

Following Fat Rice, RaviOllie will be the first Pasta chef to pop-up in the venue, taking over the Kitchen for three weeks from Thursday 6 April, and KASK will be using the opportunity to bring in a new range of Italian wines to pair with each dish. From a large kitchen facility in Bedminster, RaviOllie sells restaurant quality fresh ravioli via their website; supplies filled pasta to a large range of restaurants, pubs and hotels throughout the South West; and is a regular must-eat at summer events and festivals. With a background in Michelin-starred restaurants, founder Ollie Greenhalgh is looking forward to taking over Kitchen by KASK for three weeks with ‘RaviOllie presents Full-Filled’. A range of both classics and experimental filled-pasta dishes will include Open Ravioli with Scallops, Dill, Slow Roasted Tomatoes, Cucumber + Butter Sauce; South Devon Crab, Mascarpone + Dill Ravioli with Lobster Bisque, Samphir, Slow Roasted Tomatoes and Tarragon; Hereford Lamb Rump with Lamb Sauce, Peas, Lardons and Lamb Ravioli with Cavelo Nero; and a vegan Jerusalem Artichoke Ravioli with Grated Truffle. The full-filled theme will continue into dessert with Pistachio Cannoli and Deep Fried Pear and Goats Cheese Ravioli on the menu. 

Charlie Taylor, co-owner of Kitchen by KASK, said: “We're excited to have Fat Rice back in the Kitchen and to then welcome RaviOllie for the first time. Malaysian food is not a natural match with wine so it’s always a fun challenge coming up with pairings that work; and a completely different challenge to narrow down the options for RaviOllie, with pasta and wine being such a perfect combination. We’ve wanted to bring pasta to Kitchen by KASK ever since we opened and having tasted some of the menu already, we can’t wait for our customers to try it.” 

Showcasing the diversity of the space, Kitchen by KASK also regularly hosts Buskers Banquets, supper clubs with The MAZI Project and All About the Cooks, and private parties, and is already cooking up something special for summer - which anyone who’s serious about food should keep an eye out for.
