If you read our review of Alchemy this week you'll have seen that this new café is the last word in healthy eating in Dublin. They're hosting a pop-up dinner on both the 13th & 19th November at 7.30pm where guests will be joined by Susan Jane White, author of The Extra Virgin Kitchen, and Domini Kemp, chef, Irish Times food writer and Alchemy founder, for a three-course meal with a super juice to wash it down. They'll be discussing the effects of gluten, dairy and sugar in our diets and explore the reasoning behind reducing our consumption of them.
