‘Blood Feast’ A Celebration Of Gothic Horror At Balans Soho Society

As the autumn light begins to slowly fade, ushering in the unforgiving darkness of winter, the veil between this world and the next becomes dangerously thin. Evil spirits, fiends and beasts will walk among us.

On Saturday 29th October 2016, from 7pm to midnight, Balans Soho Society invites you to an evening dedicated to celebrating the demons to be found both without and – perhaps most disturbing of all – those found within…

Unlock your inner demons this Halloween with cursed cocktails made with, amongst other terrifying tidbits, the hollow screams of the abandoned or tincture of tears of an innocent man, carefully distilled in-house.

There will also be an especially prepared, devilishly depraved and not for the faint of heart, ‘Blood Feast’ menu.

TO START, perhaps the tender and juicy Chicken Heart Yakitori served with crunchy Asian Slaw (£7) will get the heart racing. Or delicious Devilled Kidneys served with Wild Mushrooms on toast (£8) will live up to the promise of its name.

TO FOLLOW, a sumptuous Braised Lamb’s Heart is stuffed to bursting with softly melting chicken liver and pistachio, served with creamy mashed potato and a rich gravy (£14). How ironic that such a warmly decadent dish can make the blood run ice cold.

ANY LAST WORDS? How about ‘I’ll have the Spiced Apple Mousse served with a brandy snap and salted caramel I-Scream…’? (£7) It’s guaranteed to finish anyone off.

Balans Soho Society is also delighted to welcome the satanic song stylings of Miss Philippa Leigh and her uncanny ukelele to provide the evening’s entertainment.

Simon Costin, the internationally renowned designer responsible for all the new Balans Soho Society interiors and for whom Halloween is a way of life, not just another day on the calendar will be casting his stylish spell over the restaurant. Old black and white movies will flicker over the walls, cobwebs will be spun, lights will glimmer blood red.

Whatever your pleasure, Balans Soho Society promises you a night to die for.
