SAINT PATRICKS DAY AT MR FOGGS
On Monday 17th March 2014, Mr Fogg and his household staff, in support of their Irish neighbors and friends, shall be partnering with Irelands finest, Tullamore Dew Irish whiskey, to host a special Saint Patricks Day celebration. Well known for enjoying a knees up, the residence of Mr Foggs will be full of Irish good cheer and shall be putting on festivities to rival that of the streets of Dublin. Guests will be welcomed by Celtic musicians, Banish Misfortune, the most talented jig band this side of Limmerick, who will be playing throughout the evening, before they are all invited to join Tullamore Dew Irish whiskey, for a St Patrick’s toast, alongside some delicious canapés of Irish delicacies. In true Irish spirit, all household staff will be wonderfully attired, top hats, shamrocks and green ribbons at the ready, and guests too, will of course be encouraged to follow suit.
So if you can resist everything but temptation then head on down to Dublin, via Bruton Lane this Saint Patricks Day. Mr Foggs is a recreation of the Victorian home of Jules Vernes most famous adventurer, Phileas Fogg. Modelled on the very Mayfair house in which Phileas would have lived after travelling Around the World in 80 Days, the bar is refined but at the same time truly off-the-wall, breathing liveliness and fun into the area. It is the first West End project from Inception Group, whose founders Charlie Gilkes and Duncan Stirling have also created Chelsea speakeasy Barts, 80s themed nightclub, Maggies, the acclaimed Bunga Bunga, an Englishmans Italian, Bar, Pizzeria and Karaoke venue, and most recently Disco, an underground boite in Soho based on the disco movement that took place in 1970 Manhattan.
