“Breathtaking is a word we throw around with ease. But I had not truly considered the meaning of the word until I found myself not breathing as I navigated my way through Snowdonia National Park - on my way to visit @lukeselbychef Chef Partner of @palehallhotel
With beyond dramatic landscapes and a sheer drop of several hundred feet to the left of my car, the journey becomes more beautifully astonishing with every mile. And if the prospect of plunging your car down a mountainside wasn’t enough to make you gasp for air - the sheer beauty of the Pale Hall Estate is”

@claire_inthecommunity spends a day with Luke Selby. We chat about his professional journey, his vision for this incredible estate, his role as Chef Partner, winning the triple threat of competitions including @roux_scholarship @craftguildofchefs Young and National Chef of the Year, his experiences cooking in Japan and building an incredible leadership team to join him in North Wales 🔥

“The story needs to be told. Because cooking great food doesn’t mean you need millions of pounds of investment. Only a tiny percentage of chefs will get that, anyway. You can cook amazing food from your own tiny micro restaurant - and chefs need to know this. This is the most achievable way they can run their own businesses, and really shape U.K. gastronomy” @petersancheziglesias @gwenrestaurant

It was a Friday afternoon when I saw that I had multiple missed calls from Gareth Ward. I needed to get to Machynlleth asap. Gwen, the sister restaurant to @ynyshirrestaurant was about to make the biggest announcement in its three year history 🔥🔥🔥

“I missed Casamia so much, from the very first day I closed it. I felt it in my core - this ache that something special had gone. At Gwen, I now have everything I ever wanted back”

Gareth, Peter & @claire_inthecommunity chat friendships, family, support and the rise of these super personal, tiny gastronomic hotspots, “ @restaurantdaise @firbymattsampson @ohare.michael with Inlamentation, just a handful of examples. Yes, a micro restaurant is a lot of work. If you’re a chef who prefers to be out and about, it won’t work for you. But, the way I see it is this. If you go to work in the morning and your team don’t turn up, can you still run your business? If the answers no, it’s too big” #garethward

OPENING 3rd June 🔥🔥🔥 Weds-Saturday dinner from 6pm - get booking!

“I want people to feel better in leaving than when they were arriving. I want them to appreciate - even if they don’t notice them all - the thousand small things we do to make them feel good”

@adambyatt on the opening of @rosina.restaurant in Wandsworth this summer.

Congratulations Chef - we can’t wait to visit! 🔥

“There were opportunities offered to me when I learnt Le Manoir was closing – but I wanted control over my destiny. No matter how hard it could be. I'm not here just to get a salary. I never want to be looking back, thinking I haven’t got where I wanted to be in life because I didn’t take control. I never want to blame anyone other than myself. Opportunities were offered, but with a lot of reflection, I just said "thanks but no thanks, I’ll find my own thing”

This month we meet @lukeselbychef at the incredibly beautiful @relaischateaux @palehallhotel where, in his role as Chef Partner, Luke oversees every single aspect of this extraordinary estate. We chat early years, mentors, competition success, violin practice and building what has to be one of the most impressive, world-class teams found anywhere in the UK. The team have one shared goal. To lead Pale Hall Estate to the very top.

Last week, in collaboration with @chefpublishing, we brought together some of the UK’s leading chefs and foodservice professionals at Michelin starred @frogbyah by @Adamhandling, for a celebration of premium Australian produce.

Adam and his team delivered an exceptional menu that showcased both creativity and craftsmanship, including indulgent snacks of beef & oyster caviar and ‘meat tea.’ A beautifully balanced starter of lamb with black garlic and parsley highlighted depth, followed by a standout main of premium Australian beef, morel and truffle. The experience concluded with a rich beef fat chocolate bon bon.

The lunch sparked meaningful conversation around the sustainability, quality and versatility of Australian beef and lamb, and how seamlessly they translate onto world-class fine dining menus.
