About

Welcome to my Channel! I'm James, and I've been a professional chef for nearly 20 years. I've had the privilege of learning from some of the best chefs in the UK, France, and Spain. My journey includes working at renowned places like Berners Tavern (The London Edition), Hotel Arts Barcelona, and La Rotonde (Casino Le Lyon Vert), under the mentorship of chefs like Antonio Saez, Jean-François Malle, Phil Carmichael, and Jason Atherton. My goal is to inspire you to cook amazing meals right at home. Let’s get cooking together! If you would like to support my videos!
