Whisky Tornado Bompas & Parr
Tickets are available now.
Sam Bompas and Harry Parr are a breed unto themselves; young British purveyors of culinary spectacle whose most recent book, Feasting, includes recipes for simple dishes like ham covered in glitter, as well as elaborations entailing octopus tentacles, diethyl ether, and explosives.
In the past, they've constructed events like a lake of alcoholic punch you can row across (indoors) and a room full of vaporized gin and tonic. Now, in a new installation at King's College London, they've built a tornado out of whirling whisky mist.
