On the 8th August 2012 at Moda Events Portside, 80 guests came to dine with Executive Head Chef and Owner Javier Codina and what fun was to be had!
Javiers Table was a Catalan Inspired Feast cooked before your eyes on V-Zug appliances in the company of anyone at all who wanted to be there. For the first time this was a public event and it was great fun to bring people to the venue for the first time
