We bring a background in fine dining rosette-standard cookery and passion for fine local ingredients to create you a bespoke culinary experience
I am a professional chef with a catering business based in Bristol.

More about me
For me, cooking is...
A pure joy, I am very passionate about the food I create and have found the most enjoyable way to provide this as a service.
I learned to cook at...
An apprenticeship in professional cookery, several rosette restaurants & boutique 5* hotels in Bristol & West Wales
A cooking secret...
No secrets, just tasting everything until I am sure it’s the best it can be & always cooking with love.
