it's not ALL about me, BUT...
When you're a boy growing grow up in Manchester with big dreams the general thinking is "let's 'ave it" (or for the rest of the world... "go get it lad!!")
With the best woman supporting my every move (mum), the future looked bright. You're listening to the boy that thought, whilst searching through my Grandma's spice cupboard in the same style Columbus discovered the world, that even packet sauce could do with a touch more or less seasoning - from that moment my journey had started!
Now fast forward to the present and I'm living in London with my beautiful wife, rocking the city and working as Head Chef at the most incredible food hub I could dream of.
I live, breathe, talk, travel, discover, share and celebrate everything FOOD and the dream now is to share and inspire as many souls with my craft as possible...
Big Love
