For those who don’t know/are remotely interested, in May last year I quit a 14 year long job as head chef to go self employed and seek out new challenges.

After almost a year of keeping things “traditional” working pubs and restaurants as a freelance, I’ve decided now’s the time to turn things up a notch 🤷‍♂️

So anyway, here’s the new business page with all you need to know 😉
