Over the last decade, restaurants have gone through various iterations. There was the advent of sharing plates, the rise of fusion, and the street food fad. Vegan and plant-based, obviously, and the brunch explosion. Now, allow us to introduce you to the latest trend in the world of food and drink: the ‘clubstaurant’.

A club-restaurant hybrid can mean anything from sticking some decks in the corner to table dancing and 4am finishes. Sunday Sunsets – the monthly dancing, drinking and dining experience at high-end Chinese restaurant Tattu – opts for a happy medium: vibey music and a laid-back ambience in a stylish roof terrace setting.

One Sunday a month, from 1pm, Tattu patrons dine on the top floor of Tottenham Court Road’s Outernet building to the sound of pulsating sets from DJs flown in from Ibiza and drinks from world-renowned brands, such as Laurent Perrier & House of Suntory. Headliners are from 6-9pm (so no need to worry about the morning after the night before come Monday) and Tattu has hosted the likes of industry disruptor Duke Boara, veteran house artist Lost Desert, and Themba, whose beats have their origin in his native South Africa. Low lighting, marble surfaces and skyline views add to the vibe; stiletto-d guests sip cocktails with impossibly artful garnishes as they watch the sun set.

Some may assume that, at the clubstaurant, food is secondary or sidelined. Not so at Tattu – its team of top-notch chefs wouldn’t dream of letting standards slip. The Taste of Tattu menu, available during Sunday Sunsets and throughout the week, features mouthwatering dim sum and contemporary Chinese dishes – think pearly king crab dumpling and yellowtail and kiwi sashimi. Flavours of grade 5 Wagyu and Chilean seabass pack a punch, while desserts like the signature Cherry Blossom (white chocolate, cherry sorbet and candyfloss) are just begging to be added to your Instagram feed – and taste as good as they look.

At present, the restaurant’s partnership with House of Suntory sees each ‘wave’ of the menu accompanied by a different cocktail: the Roku Sunrise (Roku gin, watermelon and apricot), the Golden Hour (Haku vodka, pineapple vermouth and passionfruit), and the Sunset Collins (Suntory whiskey, coconut soda and lemon). Needless to say, it’s a gourmet experience every bit as stylish and satisfying as the soundtrack accompanying it.

Sunday Sunsets are an example of the clubstaurant done right: it’s not a free-for-all – Tattu is too sophisticated for that – but it’s definitely lively. What better way to wind down into the week, while also banishing the Sunday blues, than dancing above the city at golden hour with a Cherry Blossom Negroni in hand? We’ll see you there.
