I come from a small French village; Groffliers, on the Northern French coast, where my earliest interests were the cooking, the countryside, the sea and ‘La Chasse’.
At age 16, I chose to study catering at Berck sur Mer and Le Touquet, continuing with a proper old fashioned 3 year apprenticeship in Charcuterie and Delicatessen, a solid grounding in the French restaurant and hotels industry followed by a leap across the channel with unlimited ambition but limited English vocabulary and new English colleagues who taught me inappropriate words.
Over 22 years, and after I earned the right to wear the tallest chef hat in the kitchen, I have also worked all over Europe and around the world cooking in prestigious hotels and restaurants, well known corporate events and people.
Now, with my equally experienced team at Silkwise Catering, I can bring all my knowledge, energy and creativity to your events, while you can be certain that you have put your trust in the most flexible, exciting and reliable caterer locally.
