Mona Presents: Mona Supper Club & Lab With Chef Emily Dobbs
On Thursday, 12 November, Mona Supper Club returns with Seychelles × Emily Dobbs, a collaboration between Seychelles, the Athens restaurant rooted in the regional cooking of Greece, and London-based chef and cookbook author Emily Dobbs, whose cooking has long been shaped by Sri Lanka. Together they cook a multi-course vegetarian dinner for 50 guests in Mona's Living Room, with an optional wine pairing selected by Seychelles. Signed copies of Emily's books, Weligama and The Spice Box, will be available for purchase.

In addition, House of Shila introduces Mona Lab, a new programme of intimate workshops inviting artists, chefs and practitioners to share their creative processes, techniques and expertise with small groups.

On 14 November, the programme welcomes chef and cookbook author Emily Dobbs for the Spice Box Workshop. Drawing on her background in fine art before becoming a chef, Emily explores the creative possibilities of spices, transforming ingredients such as turmeric, paprika and cinnamon into natural paints.

ABOUT MONA SUPPER CLUB

Founded and curated by House of Shila, Mona Supper Club spotlights global chefs and local culinary talent. Each gathering invites them to bring their own approach to Mona’s Living Room, creating a menu shaped by their ingredients, influences, and culinary traditions. The series is as much about the people around the table as the food itself, bringing familiar faces and new friends together over a shared meal.

ABOUT MONA

Located in the heart of downtown Athens, Mona represents a new era for the concept-led boutique hotel and multi-disciplinary space. Staged in an eight-storey industrial factory from the 1950s, it features 20 characterful rooms, a multi-use living room, and a speakeasy basement venue. The building's highest point is its member-exclusive rooftop, where guests enjoy the endless inspiration of the Athenian urban scenery, including the famous Acropolis, paired with local delicacies and hand-selected natural wines. Steeped in the spirit of the city, Mona is a sprawling playground for travellers, artists, emerging and established brands, photo and film productions, pop-up happenings and private events of all visions. Mona acts as a living gallery and showroom, with works of art unfolding organically throughout the space—on walls and within rooms—all available for sale.
