Meet Brett
Hi, I'm Brett!
My culinary journey began in sun-soaked South Africa where I was born and has blossomed here in the food scene of the UK. From childhood dreams of chocolate and baking to my present-day passion as a private chef, my culinary journey has been one of continuous flavour and adventure. My passion lies in creating bespoke dining experiences that linger in your memory long after the last bite.
I moved to the UK at 15 and it was here that I truly embraced my culinary aspirations. I've relished the opportunity to work across a variety of culinary settings.
During my A-levels, I gained invaluable experience in a bustling hotel chain kitchen. Completing my diploma at Leith’s School of Food and Wine has given me a solid foundation in culinary arts, refining my skills and broadening my understanding of sophisticated flavour combinations. This education has empowered me to confidently experiment with new techniques and ingredients, ensuring that every dish I create is both exciting and memorable.
I also thoroughly enjoyed work experience at Jamie Oliver's Cooking School, where I had the privilege of sharing knowledge and techniques with aspiring cooks. These roles, along with my work as a private chef crafting bespoke meals, have been integral to my professional development and culinary expertise.
Beyond my formal education, I have continuously sought to deepen my culinary knowledge and expand my repertoire through additional workshops and courses. I enjoy experimenting with new recipes and techniques.
Whether you're planning an intimate gathering or a significant celebration, I am here to provide a tailored culinary experience that reflects your tastes and surprises your senses. Join me in celebrating good food and let's create unforgettable moments around the dining table.
