Adrian Robert
Area: Burton upon Trent, United Kingdom
My passion for cooking began at a very early age, cooking with my mother and my grandmother. At fifteen years old i got my first job in my Godfather’s Restaurant as an apprentice. There I learned all the basic techniques like how to peel a carrot and boil an egg. My creativity and inspiration began to blossom during my early years in Bucharest under the tutelage of a great french chef at Athene Palace. With a lot of enthusiasm and hunger to learn I started working all over Europe, Greece, Italy, France,Germany and Austria. There I obtained the understanding and respect for the ingredients that I came in contact with, to treat them with the proper culinary techniques and to obtain the very best flavor that each has to offer. I love making people happy thorough my food. I love to see the faces of people when they put that bite in their mouths and they express how good everything is. One great chef told me once that if I want to become a great chef I need to work only with great chefs and honestly this was what I have done during my career. I know I still got a lot to learn but I got a lot to offer too and I am not thinking of the things that I do as a job. Chef Ducasse philosophy is “la simplicite, c’est la perfection” and this is a philosophy that I aim to live by.

Jacques Van Der Merwe
Area: Solihull, United Kingdom
Jacques is a self taught and slightly unconventional chef who focuses on bringing something unique to the table. Starting out in a friend’s health food catering business he quickly realised just how much he enjoys cooking and within 6 months he opened the doors to his very own bistro. His concept was to serve a seasonal menu whereby every single ingredient was locally sourced and every dish on the menu was completely made by hand in house by he and his small team of chefs. Jacques’ food philosophy is simple: simplicity, technique and flavour. Food is art and dining should always be an experience! This humble approach to honest cooking earned his first restaurant a place in the top 4 restaurants in South Africa in 2016’s Restaurant Week Spring edition. After adding a new little member of the family, a recent move to Birmingham with his family means that Jacques is here to passionately shake things up a bit and bring a whole new flavour to the already bustling Birmingham food scene. With a vast knowledge in wine and spirits Jacques specialises in paired menus of all kinds: from coffee to brandies and even craft beer pairing menus. Jacques has a deep love for dessert and it shows in the way he merges old favourites and modern technique.
Leave a requestJamie Raftery
Area: Cotswold District, United Kingdom
Jamie is a Michelin trained chef with 18 years experience. His wanderlust cuisine and holistic approach is inspired by macrobiotic and ayurvedic philosophies. Jamie has an extensive repertoire of recipes inspired by his culinary travels all over the world. From Gordon Ramsay, Michael Caines, Thomas Keller and Heston Blumenthal to Marcus Wareing, Jamie has been fortunate to ride the helter-skelter of fiery kitchens, and earn his stripes under the tutelage of these super Michelin star chefs. However, it was a deep-rooted passion for the philosophical essence of food and nutrition that led him to his current holistic approach. Born and raised in West Ireland, Jamie had an abiding interest and appreciation of vital aspects of nature’s cornucopia. He grew up beside a botanical and wildlife rich ecosystem, consisting of a pristine raised moorland with adjoining Turlough. It was here where Jamie first foraged for wild mushrooms and edible plants. This is where his love and appreciation for food and nature was instilled. After four years as executive chef over luxury hotels and achieving many awards, scholarships, and global collaborations with respected chefs under his belt, Jamie’s holistic preoccupation and conviction imparted a renewed creative energy boost to his professional and personal life.

Area: Birmingham, United Kingdom
Stuart has spent a lifetime in catering as he grew up as a hotelier’s son. From an early age, everything from being able to pour the perfect gin & tonic to opening a bottle of wine with a waiters friend and being able to pour it properly was important. It was ingrained into him from those formative years. He gained early FOH experience in his fathers 30 bedroom Georgian luxury country house hotel. His first roll as a chef was within a country house hotel and Timeshare resort in Royal Deeside. 20 years have now passed and his experiences have taught him much in the way of knowledge and technique. Spending over 6 years in a fine dining seafood restaurant, he left as the head chef with 3 rosettes to his name. From there to a busy city centre bar/brasserie, he served up to 700 covers a day (brunch, lunch, dinner and private dining) in all styles of food. He then spent 10 years at a city law firm, looking after their hospitality and staff restaurant, all to the highest standard, offering all formats of food from canapes, buffets and working lunches to top quality fine dining. This extended to their homes for private work for directors and partners of the firm. Other private work has involved charity auctions offering a tailored experience within the comfort of your own home. Within this time he developed a love for baking. Bread, cakes, cookies all became part of the daily ritual. A passionate lover of food and embraces new styles and techniques from all around the world. When on holiday, he will sample local food and take from that ideas to introduce into his food. A real foodie!

From Bon Nuit, Tim worked his way up through the industry to achieve the status of Executive Chef for the British Embassy in Stockholm. This stint overseas fired his passion for travel; Tim has had the opportunity to cook overseas in beautiful Marbella, Spain where he has run several restaurants. Tim’s style of cooking developed over the years into a fusion of flavours with bursts of colour and fresh ingredients, from Spanish mountain foods such as partridge with chocolate and wild boar with hedge berries to Gambas Pil Pil and his legendary Monkfish in Red Curry with Hazelnut Sauce. Tim’s attention to flavours, presentation and detail has given him a unique place amongst Europe’s innovative chefs. Now living between Marbella and Nottingham he is offering his experience providing in-house chef facilities in either country.
