Description:

I'm Chris - a trained plant-based chef and vegan hospitality consultant from the UK, with over four years of experience crafting innovative, flavourful, and nutritionally balanced plant-based dishes. I’ve worked in kitchens across wellness retreats and for bespoke private events, often in remote or temporary settings where adaptability, planning, and resourcefulness are key. I’m very confident in my ability to plan, source, prep, and serve food that not only meets the brief, but elevates the entire experience. In 3 words, my food philosophy focusses on flavour, balance and creativity!
