Originally from Leeds in the UK, I have been a professional caterer for over 20 years and have worked in Switzerland, France and Australia. My experience of the catering and hospitality industry is diverse, ranging from chef roles in small restaurants, boutique hotels and larger hotel chains to management in corporate and private hospitality at prestigious events including the Rugby World Cup, Royal Ascot, the Ryder Cup, the 2012 Olympic Games and more recently as a consultant chef in Qatar for the FIFA World Cup.

For me, cooking is...

Simple dishes, the best local ingredients, beautiful presentation

I learned to cook at...

Lausanne, Switzerland

A cooking secret...

Using classic cookery techniques in a modern way.

John was lovely, he made 3 beautiful courses which the 12 of us loved. We were on a hen do, and having John made the evening feel so special, and stress free! Would recommend doing this, and will definitely do again!
