Inspired by the rich and fertile creative terrain where food, music and experience overlap, {PAIRED} is a one-of-a-kind collaboration between Carousel & AVA.
At its heart, the idea is simple: bring together talented people from complementary disciplines and watch as the magic unfolds, with co-created menus and soundtracks weaving together shared influences.
The night begins with a multi-course set menu, pairing special dishes with unique music that takes into account the ingredients and the evening's ambience. After dinner, we clear the floor and carry dancing into the night.
Each pairing is unique to that time and place and the audience who’s there to experience it.
Pairing the world’s most exciting Chefs & DJs, {PAIRED} is the game-changing collaboration between guest chef pioneers Carousel and the creative team behind AVA. Inspired by the rich and fertile creative terrain where food, music and experience overlap, each pairing is a one-off, unique to that time and place and the audience who’s there to experience it.
