## A note
before
we sit.

We started Long Table in a borrowed kitchen, with six chairs we'd carried up the stairs, and the conviction that an evening is more than the food on the plates.

Three years on we've seated almost two thousand strangers across nine cities, and we've learned that the chairs are sometimes the most important part.

This deck is the small handbook we send our hosts before each edition. It is also, quietly, an invitation.

## An evening
for the rain.

A long winter dinner in a converted printing room above a bookshop. One shared roast, an unhurried wine list, and a single intermission that may, if the weather agrees, become a walk to the harbour and back.

An evening I keep describing, badly, to people who weren't there.
