Ellen Parr of Lucky & Joy returns to Exmouth Market, bringing the bold, bright and deeply flavourful cooking that has come to define Lucky & Joy. Having previously cooked at Moro, Ellen went on to co-found Lucky & Joy, drawing inspiration from the food and flavours of China alongside her own experiences as a chef.
On Sunday 20th September, Ellen returns to the Moro kitchen for a special collaborative feast, with everyone coming together around the table from 1pm. Bringing together Moro’s wood-fired, Mediterranean and Moorish foundations with Lucky & Joy’s punchy, spice-led approach to Chinese cooking, expect a generous sharing menu made for the middle of the table; celebrating the flavours, influences and ideas that have shaped Ellen’s cooking since her time at Moro.
