Introducing La Mesa (The Table) - a new guest chef series from Decimo at The Standard, London. A table for collaboration. A celebration of kitchens shaped by culture, memory and fire. Each edition brings together chefs we admire, from here and far - for one-night-only dinners.
For our first edition, we bring together three kitchens, three cities, and one shared love for ferments, fire, sauces, and the sacred act of wrapping food in food. Think tacos and bo ssam, masa and perilla, salsas and kimchi, flavour-packed, hands-on, heat-driven food, made to be eaten with your fingers and your full attention.
Joining us:
Songsoo Kim: Head of Sourcing and Development from London’s cult dining group Super 8, known for quietly redefining how the city eats.
Susan Kim: Chef-founder of NYC’s Doshi: a Korean-American pop-up that draws from personal memory and cultural lineage, reinventing tradition with heart and heat.
Paola Arenas: Decimo’s Head Chef: raised in Mexico City, trained in kitchens around the world, and now leading the Decimo Kitchen grounded in her heritage while evolving in real time. Since joining Paola has quietly and confidently made the the menu her own — layering depth into salsas, mastering masa, and building a team and a table that reflect the vibrancy and generosity of Mexican cooking.
On the menu: scallop & melon aguachile with jalapeño, tofu skin salad with wood ear mushroom and hot mustard, Jeyuk al pastor tacos, red mullet a la talla, pork belly bossam, and all the things that belong on the table — kimchi, salsa verde, sesame oil pickles, herbs, masa tortillas, perilla leaves and bibb lettuce. Finished with horchata shaved ice, strawberries and cereal candy — a playful and refreshing nod to childhood.
Lost Explorer Cocktails on the night featuring classics and crowd favourites Mezcal Palomas and Spicy Margaritas.
