Sometimes we add things to the menu simply because we crave them ourselves: that’s how we ended up with Gambas Ibériques 😋
Our little nod to Gambas al Ajillo with wild shrimp, lots of garlic, olive oil, herbs, a touch of heat, and bread that becomes mandatory the second the plate hits the table.
Messy fingers encouraged. Extra bread recommended 👏
Available now at Wormwood

A table set for those who know! 🧚
Introducing the Wormwood Supper Club: an invitation into a slower, more intentional way of dining.
Each month, we curate a multi-course experience rooted in French technique, seasonal ingredients, and the spirit of the Green Fairy. Expect dishes you won’t find on the menu and thoughtful pairings.
We want this to be more than a takeout: turn it into a dining ritual for you and your preferred person or your family! A taste of Wormwood’s ambience at home.
