For many, the peaks of Mount Everest are an elusive travel fantasy, reserved for the most adventurous and intrepid.
Add to that the chance to tuck into a Michelin-grade meal at 17,000 feet on the earth’s highest mountain, and you get an experience that ups the bucket list ante.
The Nepal dinner party is one of 20 stops on chef James Sharman’s One Star House Party tour, which kicked off in Beijing this fall.
It’s an ambitious two-year adventure that will take Sharman to major cities around the world, where he and four friends will host pop-up events catered to local flavors and cuisines.
For the fourth stop, guests will have to earn their dinner.
After setting off from Kathmandu, Nepal, a group of 15 guests will embark on a two-week trek to the base of Mount Everest, where they will then sit down to a dinner party prepared by a chef who has worked in the kitchen at Copenhagen’s Noma, ranked the best restaurant in the world four times by Restaurant magazine.
The trip runs between December 10 and December 23.
At each stop on the tour, Sharman and four friends will conduct research and reconnaissance missions for three weeks before developing the menu and building the pop-up restaurant.
After visiting Chengdu, China, for example, Sharman developed his own version of Sichuan duck that applied the nose-to-tail concept to the plant kingdom.
Reservations for the 14-day Nepalese adventure close November 29 and are priced at $1,050 per person excluding flights.
The team is currently preparing for their upcoming pop-up in Bangkok, which runs November 27 to December 3.
Other stops on the tour include Cape Town, London, New York, Mexico City, Vancouver, and Hong Kong.
