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.







If you want to join us at our secret dining table become our friend on Facebook and you will receive invites to each event. Only when you accept the invite will you be given the secret location. 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.

Meeting with Caroline Cook - trainee journalist

We met Caroline Cook (a trainee journalist with Cardiff School of Journalism) on Saturday to talk about a feature piece Caroline wants to write about CalonY Gegin Underground.  Caroline asked us lots of questions about how we became interested in cooking and food and about the underground night we're organising for March 19th: if we'd decided on the menu, the costs, where it would be held, how we are going to advertise the night.  We agreed that Caroline would come to the underground night and, speak to fellow guests and then write the piece on Calon Y Gegin Underground.  Apparently, we are the 1st underground restaurant in South Wales!  Caroline publishes her articles at http://www.capturecardiff.com/ and will publish the piece sometime after 19th March.
