  Paris house restaurant

  Feb 2004 - Feb 2008

  Senior sous chef

  Originally built in 1878 for the Paris Exhibition, Paris House was dismantled and brought back to England by 'Hastings', the 9th Duke of Bedford and rebuilt, piece by piece, timber by timber, on the Woburn Estate. In 1983 it underwent complete restoration and opened as an elegant and stylish restaurant. Peter Chandler, my Head Chef and mentor, took it over at this time. He was the first English apprentice to be taken on by the chefs Albert and Michel Roux, and went on to acquire a Michelin star at his own restaurant, Paris House. Show less
