About Joel

Chef Joel White

Cooking has taken me a lot of places over the past decade from fine dining kitchens, private households, high end events and villa stays. I've worked as a private chef for high profile clients in London and the UK for 6 years. Wherever I am, my job's the same: to look after and nourish my clients .

I cook in a clean, modern and intentional way led by the best ingredients each season has to offer.  Every dish is a quiet celebration of local growers, thoughtful technique, and honest flavour. 

Fundamentally food for me is about bringing people together to share a moment. My aim is simple: to cook from the heart and bring you a little slice of joy with every plate.
