We’ve never really thought of Radiohead as perfect dinner party music, but perhaps that’s now all changed. Yes, a chef from Detroit has invented this 10-course meal based on Radiohead’s classic album, Kid A.

The recipe attempts to create a unique dish to sum up the essence of each track, for example: “Idioteque” consists of rugula salad, crispy pancetta and more.

Kyle Hanley is presented the meal at a pop-up event in the city on Wednesday (19 February). Tickets cost $125.
