Netflix has set the stage for 2025 with a sizzling sneak peek at the much-anticipated third instalment of Knives Out. In January, the streaming giant announced that in the upcoming movie, ‘Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery’, our beloved sleuth Benoit Blanc will face his “most dangerous case yet”. Planned for an autumn release, Daniel Craig is set to reprise his role as the charismatic detective Benoit Blanc.
But for UK fans itching for a taste of mystery before autumn, they will the opportunity to immerse themselves in a world of murder and enigma with a one-of-a-kind dining experience inspired by the hit Netflix films. ‘The Perfect Bite’ offers an evening filled with intrigue and suspense, all served up in true Daniel Craig fashion.
At the helm of this culinary adventure is the esteemed chef Maribelle Moore, who has crafted a sumptuous four-course menu specifically for ‘The Perfect Bite’. Hosted at one of London’s premier steak houses, diners will not only savour a lavish feast but also unravel a bone-chilling whodunit.
Guests will find themselves entangled in a story about the “Salty Six,” a collective of gourmet connoisseurs whose gathering descends into turmoil after a sinister murder occurs. The dinner becomes even more thrilling as Logan Lock, associate of Benoit Blanc, crashes the soirée, seeking assistance from the guests.
Hints subtly embedded within each course will lead diners to uncover a hidden message in plain sight. This concept is inspired by ‘Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery’, the sequel in the series, where a tech mogul’s tranquil Greek Island retreat spirals into chaos following a murder.
‘The Perfect Bite’ is brought to life by Secret City, a digital and location-based design studio renowned for immersive storytelling, in collaboration with Netflix. After a successful stint in Canada, where it sold out rapidly, the dining experience is now en route to London.
Set to commence on June 5 for a limited time, the event will take place at Gaucho in the City of London.
The sessions are available from Wednesday to Friday at 7 pm and on Saturdays at 1 pm and 6 pm.
Tickets are priced at £125 per person and can be purchased online – but hurry, as places are being snapped up quickly.
