food drinks menu
And a couple of weeks ago I proved this theory when I got to spend a very pleasant evening some like-minded carnivorous people at one of my favourite London restaurants: the South African-owned Vivat Bacchus.
The event took place in their London Bridge branch (they also have one in Farringdon), in the downstairs dining room and by the time I arrived, the party was already getting underway with a room full of hungry guests, some fantastic South African bubbles from my favourite estate Graham Beck, and the lovely Rosana and Louis there to meet me.
Gerrie explained the format of the evening to us, as well as introducing us to the fact that the restaurant has partnered with Spanish Rioja winery Finca Allende and are launching an Allende private dining room at Vivat Bacchus Farringdon this month.
In preparation for the arrival of the starter, we were served our next red wine, this time out of the biggest bottle I have ever seen open (as opposed to on display at a wine estate or wine shop!)
Keep an eye on the Vivat Bacchus website to see when the next Club Carnivore dinner is scheduled – tickets cost £79 per head which includes all food and wine.
Vivat Bacchus, London Bridge & Bermondsey
The London Bridge restaurant opened in August, 2008, five years to the day after the launch of Vivat Bacchus in Farringdon.
There is a wine bar at ground level which serves a selection of tapas, platters and steak sandwiches, and a 60-seater fine dining restaurant downstairs.
There are specialist cheese rooms on both floors with one of the widest selections available in London.
Customers are invited to enter the rooms and talk to the experts for their perfect selection.
The opening hours of Vivat Bacchus London Bridge will be as follows:

In a bland modern development off Tooley Street, this branch of the South African-owned mini-group sticks to a winning formula, with a basement restaurant complementing the deli counters upstairs.
Although there’s wine-themed decoration in the form of posters and crates, the climate-controlled cheese and wine rooms provide the most attractive element of the design.
The list pays attention to all the classic French regions (Champagne is particularly well represented) but it’s difficult to avoid drifting back to the outstanding selection of South African wines.
The menu is international in scope with an emphasis on French and Italian cooking, but makes a special feature of dishes from the grill, including Pata Negra pork chops and a côte de boeuf for two people.
The bar has a simple menu of cold dishes, especially platters of charcuterie.
