Your progress

Call Riina for fried-olive stock before starting; the online listing previously marked it sold out. Once confirmed, share the olives and Leen's pumpkin soup at Distrikt, then drive to Big Easy for malva pudding. Book a dessert-only table and check minimum spend, sharing and event terms. Wear smart-casual clothes and confirm the service day, including Monday closure.
