S1 Ep10: Gabriel Waterhouse - Turning His Supper Club Into One Of The Most Respected Restaurants In The UK!
Today we're joined by a true culinary hero in Gabriel Waterhouse, the head chef and owner of the acclaimed restaurant; The Waterhouse Project in East London. Gabriel started off his career by cooking in one of the finest restaurants in France before moving to London to work under the 3 Michelin starred chef Herbert Berger at Innholders Hall. It was then onto Michelin starred Galvin La Chappelle, where during his time there Gabriel started his own supper club from his flat on his days off. This quickly grew in popularity like wild fire and became one of the most sought after dining experiences in the capital, leading to Gavriel leaving Galvin and going full time. A couple of years later Gabriel opened 'The Waterhouse Project' which still today is one of the greatest dining experiences I've ever had in over 30 years. Today he shares with us all his incredible stories from these various kitchens, the stresses of running your own place and chasing Michelin stars, the reason he thinks why most chefs are overrated, the negative impact of the media in the industry, what its like cooking for Freemasons and of course all of his go-to's. ------------ Please leave us a comment with your thoughts on the podcast and a rating and if you enjoyed it please send onto all those who you feel will also enjoy it.
