Welcome to Calon y Gegin

Calon Y Gegin (meaning heart of the kitchen) is an underground or secret restaurant in Cardiff, it launched in March 2010 and at that time it was the first one of its kind in the area. In fact it still holds this unique title. Fellow foodies regularly gather at secret locations in Cardiff to enjoy sumptuous plates of food prepared using locally sourced and seasonal ingredients. Recently we have hosted vintage afternoon tea parties, lazy Sunday brunches, 4-course dinners and 7-course tasting menu events.

People of all ages, backgrounds and interests looking for a new a culinary experience are joining us all the time. Underground dining is a exciting and new, reserve a secret seat and come and see for yourself.

Foodie Thought of the Week

It's British asparagus season, get out there and buy, buy, buy!  The season is so short and we have the best asparagus in the world, don't bother with that air freighted stuff that's flown halfway round the world before it reaches your plate! 

Roast it briefly in the oven and then drizzle with balsamic vinegar and parmesan shavings or blanche it and serve with a delicious hollandaise sauce.  Ummmmm, whatever you decide to do, do it quickly as the season will all be over by June/July!  Enjoy
