Experience a journey of flavour

Good food brings

us together
I had a magical childhood, moving from town to town with my
father’s travelling theatre company. “The Company” would always sit
down to a meal together. I used to love roaming around the kitchen
among the cauldrons of steaming food, but more than anything, I
enjoyed seeing the joy on the diners’ faces as they savoured the tasty
delights. This is where my love of cooking began.

Inspired by a land so rich in culture & influenced by the great chefs

that I have met over the years, I hope that you enjoy sharing in my
journey & the lovingly prepared recipes presented in this menu.
