Chef At Home in Selsey
Get to know me better
I was mentored by Celebrity-Chef Lee Holland, transforming seafood cuisine, earning regional awards. My art is proven success.
Hello! I'm your Chef: My culinary story is where the harsh authenticity of the Cornish coast meets contemporary elegance. From peeling potatoes in winter's chill to achieving the perfect, precise sear on fresh fish under the summer sun. My earliest lessons in the fishing village of Looe taught me the value of both patience and precision, forming the bedrock of my approach. Blended expertise in traditional Italian cuisine, executive private catering (F1, Dua Lipa, Simon Rogan) and specialized culinary talent management. I specialize in a minimalist seafood style, marrying pure flavours with sustainable French technique for this is the foundation of my culinary mastery. For casual diners seeking a unique experience or luxury caterers demanding distinction, I don't just cook—I craft immersive, rustic modern fusion events where the ingredient is the star. This is the difference: a dining experience rooted in coastal discipline, designed for modern palates.
