Sweaty Betty, everyone’s favourite leggings brand, and Coal Office, the coolest restaurant in vibey Coal Drops Yard have teamed up for a series of wellness events throughout Feb and March. Our girl Hannah Tan-Gillies ventured into buzzy London to start the year well and try out one of the classes.
Located in the unique and stunning setting of the building’s 19th century arches, Sweaty Betty has curated a schedule of events that promote wellbeing and mindfulness.
Priced at £20 per person, each participant will be treated to a 60 minute session from a specialist instructor, plus a gift from Sweaty Betty, bag and a £20 voucher to spend in-store. The renowned Coal Office restaurant will provide a complimentary drink after the class too!
We sampled the ‘Confidence through Dance’ workshop which was led by Peruvian dancer Vivi Gabel who taught us to channel our inner Beyonce and walk, talk and breathe confidence. The workshop started with some easy warmup, followed by a few confidence exercises across the floor. Vivi’s energy was infectious and she really knew how to hype up the crowd and get everyone moving.
Throughout the workshop, Vivi was talking us through some confidence boosting tips and tricks and helping everyone awaken their inner dancers. Afterwards, she taught a cute little dance routine which got everyone’s heart rates up – and confidence through the roof.
After our class, we treated ourselves to a delightful meal in Coal Office’s chef’s table. Dinner at Coal Office is like going on a gastronomic rollercoaster. The vibes, interiors, smells, sounds and flavours are immaculate – as is every dish on offer on the menu.
Speaking of – the menu is all about family-style dining offering contemporary mix of Middle Eastern, Mediterranean and Jewish dishes. The result? True culinary bliss. The menu is crafted by Head Chef Dan Pelles, who bring Jerusalem traditions to life in this London hangout, whilst celebrating the very best produce from local suppliers.
While we were faffing about trying to figure out what menu options were gluten/dairy/egg-free (typical Londoner diet we know) Chef Dan took over and made a pretty smashing selection for us. We do love it when a man takes control. Paired with a refreshing gin spritz – Chef Dan’s choices were simply divine. We kicked things off with the Aubergine Tartare – a wonderfully tangy mixture of black and white aubergine cream, parsley and chilli paired with Tabula Rasa, a fresh beef tartare dish with bulgur, aubergine demi-glace, harissa and roasted hazelnuts.
For mains, the ‘Kuka Mashloka’ wowed. Here, Chef Dan and his team deep-fried a whole Jewish artichoke heart and seasoned it with parsnip, fresh parsley and pistachio Tabileh.
While the restaurant’s dining space and downstairs arches provide a unique location for this Sweaty Betty wellness, we highly recommend having a seat at the chef’s table – where you can soak up all the action of the talented chefs in the kitchen and really be immersed by the sights, sounds and smells of Coal Office.
