Tomislav
Nestled in Kirketon road in Kings Cross, Tomislav is a new mini bistro opened by Tomislav Martinovic. Having recently worked with Heston Blumenthal at the Fat Duck, and followed by being head chef at Koi in Woolwich (both my absolute favorites), Tomislav provides an understated extravagance to his cooking...

Sea urchin spaghettini
Sea urchin spaghetti has always been a popular item in Japan, normally served in quasi-Italian restaurants or cafes (along with Mentaiko spaghetti, a kind or smelt roe).

Sebastien Bras
I had the wonderful opportunity to attend Sebastien Bras’ program at the World Chef Showcase to learn about his approach to classic French cuisine, while watch him demonstrate the amount of work and detail that goes into creating the gargouillou de jeunes legumes.
Ranking seventh in the 2009 S....
The Fat Duck
There is no doubt that Heston Blumenthal is a genius with his food. Like the imagery conveyed through a writer’s prose, Heston narrates his stories with his culinary quill. Ranking number two in the world after Ferran Adria’s elBulli for numerous years makes no indication that Heston is second...
