Dinner and Show: Pre-Theatre Dining Experience with Shaftesbury Theatre’s Mrs Doubtfire
An Unforgettable Pre-Theatre Dining Experience Awaits
We are thrilled to announce our exciting new partnership, offering a pre-theatre dining experience with the hit West End musical Mrs Doubtfire, starting this summer from 1st August. At Colonel Saab, we’re dedicated to providing a multi-sensory dining adventure that now includes an exclusive menu inspired by Shaftesbury Theatre's beloved comedy show and the iconic 90s film.
A Theatrical Feast at Colonel Saab
Join us at our flagship restaurant in Holborn, where we offer theatre-goers a choice between a lavish five-course Mrs Doubtfire Experience Menu priced at £60, including a colour changing cocktail, and a concise two-course Mrs Doubtfire Set Lunch Menu for £35. Both options are designed to delight your senses and set the perfect prelude to the show at Shaftesbury Theatre, just a four-minute stroll away.
Book your dining experience now, and we’ll send you a unique code to enjoy £15 off your Mrs Doubtfire theatre tickets. Please note, the discount on theatre tickets is only available when dining at Colonel Saab.
A Menu Full of Surprises
Our Mrs Doubtfire Experience Menu is a culinary adventure that mirrors the whimsical nature of the show. It begins with the colour-changing Chachi 420 gin cocktail, inspired by the Bollywood remake of Mrs Doubtfire—a film that has cemented its place in both Indian and UK cinema.
Every course is a nod to transformation, much like the character of Mrs Doubtfire. Highlights include:
- • Butter Chicken, reminiscent of the iconic Spatchcock Chicken scene.
- • "My First Day as a Woman" Anglo Indian Chicken Chop.
- • "Poppet's Paneer Pakeezah."
- • "Hellooo!" Gutti Vankaya.
To top it all off, the experience concludes with a "Run-By Fruiting" and a grand finale involving liquid nitrogen, paying cheeky homage to the movie's memorable kitchen fire scene.
A Partnership Celebrated by Fans
We are incredibly excited about our collaboration with Mrs Doubtfire on this theatrical menu experience. The film and its Bollywood remake, Chachi 420, hold significant cultural value in both India and the UK, and we enjoyed transforming the story from stage to plate with our multi-sensory Mrs Doubtfire dining experience.
Join Us for an Unforgettable Evening
The Mrs Doubtfire dining experience at Colonel Saab is a perfect blend of culture, art, and cuisine, providing a unique pre-theatre dining experience that celebrates both the magic of theatre and the richness of Indian gastronomy.
