LURY has available sittings on Friday the 23rd of February at Poached in East Dulwich. We are offering two sittings: 6pm and 8:45pm. Both sittings are offering the same 10 course tasting menu priced at £90. We encourage diners to arrive promptly, as guests are served at the same time, so late arrival may mean missed courses.
BOOK NOW
Before booking please note that we serve a small number of guests a set tasting menu amongst which are various meat and fish courses. As such, unfortunately we are unable to cater for dietary preferences or restrictions. If in doubt, please drop us an email prior to booking to discuss if we are able to accommodate.
LURY
Mouthwatering Sri Lankan flavours meet French classical techniques
LURY is a pop-up restaurant created by Jack Lury, which combines the techniques of his classical training with the flavours of his Sri Lankan heritage.
Think sambols and string hoppers bursting with aromas of tamarind, turmeric and coconut, meeting rich sauces, roasted meats and exquisite patisserie.
Jack earned his Cordon Bleu diploma at the Tante Marie culinary school, before working at some of the country’s best restaurants including Le Manoir aux Quat’Saisons, L’Enclume and Galvin at Windows.
Since then he has made his reputation as a private chef for high-end clients across the country, including A-list celebrities, heads of state, members of the Royal Family and anyone who loves exquisitely crafted, delicious food.
In 2022, Jack began experimenting with a pop-up concept which fused modern techniques of French cuisine with the soul of Sri Lanka. After tryouts in his front room, stints across South London and a sold out residency for a month in Camberwell, LURY now comes to East Dulwich from February 2024.

Lyrical Lesbian Love Letters
Throughout history the intimacy and existence of lesbian relationships has been preserved through carefully coded and hidden love letters. For these pop up performance we will be opening the envelope, unfolding the paper and freeing the love letter from the page in a musical homage to the timelessness and power of lesbian love.

Kia has performed at poetry nights across the country, their performance films are archived internationally, and they were awarded the Poetry Society collaboration prize 2021.
Expressions of Gender Expression
While gender is commonly perceived as fixed and unchanging, the Dulwich Picture Gallery collection offers a historical perspective that unveils the evolving expressions and fluctuations of gender over time. For these pop up performances we will hear from poets whose writing explores the fluidity of gender and expressions of androgyny.

Drag King Drawing Room
Join us for this immersive life drawing experience responding to E.M. Parry`s (They/Them) durational performance Pricklings, in which viewer/participants are invited to stick pins into an ambiguously gendered silicone body-suit worn by the artist, staging themselves as trans saint, queer icon, fetish object, witch’s poppet, a luck charm, a ritual, a process, a test, a game.
E.M Parry (They / Them) is Trans*-disciplinary artist, academic, and award-winning theatre maker, working across scenography, performance, drag and visual art, centering queer bodies and narratives. Straddling and splicing genres and platforms, their work has been staged in the West End, international opera stages, pubs, clubs, ships, lecture halls, museums and haunted basements. They work with, through and for the queer body, squinting at history, flirting with ghosts and the things that go bump in the margins.
Principle Bois
These pop up performances will present theatrical explorations of gender, the body and queerness from prominent London drag kings and things.
Beau Jangles (he/him) is the vintage-style drag king-about-town who The Guardian has called ‘a compelling host’. Beau blends drag, comedy, live singing, and old-school charm and has performed across London, the UK, and internationally, at venues including The Clapham Grand, The Southbank Centre, The Sam Wanamaker Theatre, Kew Gardens, The Barbican, and The Phoenix Theatre on the West End.
Wet Mess (They/Them) Wet Mess is a wet mess, horny for your confusion. Let it all out and guess again at the insecure balding white man/p*ssy prince/alien baby. Have a lollygag, think about your fantasy flesh suits, call me sweet prince, and remember Roger in a kaftan. Choose to make some silly campy decisions, with all the hairy thems and dykey men. All I really wanna do is strip for the stripper and drive her home with the dogs.
Gimlet Bar
Enjoy a variety of cocktails created by master mixoligists at the Gimlet bar.

All proceeds from this Shanty and Sea Song night will be donated to the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI),
We welcome back The HogEye Men to the Goose Is Out! They are fantastic Shanty and Sea song singers, who have been together for many years. They are possibly London's finest Shanty crew and have recently been appointed resident Shanty crew aboard the Cutty Sark, Greenwich, London.
There will be support from Chris Lamb, Creeping Jane, John Haseler and Shotley Crue.
There will be a raffle and (hopefully) lots of audience participation.
Please note the live music will begin at 7.30pm and end at 10.30 pm as opposed to our usual start and end times of 8.00pm and 11pm. This is because some of the HogEye Men have a long way to get home.
