Six months ago, this was just an idea. Not just a kitchen, but a space I wanted to build around my private dinners and supper clubs. There were delays, dust, and a lot of decisions along the way — but I never lost sight of what it could become. I documented the whole process, and I’m excited to finally start sharing it. More to come. #privatechef #chefslife #privatecheflondon #kitchenrenovation #culinaryjourney taken in Bearsted, Kent by @silverfoxcooks

🇮🇹 What happens when Italian food, MasterChef talent, Thermomix and multi-award-winning honey come together at Brands Hatch @brandshatchofficial? Welcome to The Italian Kitchen at Festival Italia — presented by Louisa’s Honey x Thermomix. 🍯 I had the pleasure of being behind the camera for the event, capturing the chefs, the dishes and everything happening inside the kitchen throughout the day. Hosted by @chef_john_paul_alberti, with former MasterChef quarter and semi-finalists @silverfoxcooks @thuycooks @yummy_bydesign @forestkwok, alongside Thermomix advisor and representative @emma.inthemix. And there was one ingredient running through the dishes that deserves its own story. 🍯 @louisashoney Coriander. Citrus. Lime. Acacia. Ginger. (more flavours available) But here's the important part: They are NOT infused honeys. The flavours aren't added afterwards. The bees naturally forage within controlled orchards where these different plants are grown, allowing each honey to develop its own distinctive flavour profile from the nectar collected. And watching the chefs work with them showed exactly why honey doesn't have to mean simply “sweet.” Across the kitchen, it became a glaze. A balance to acidity. A layer of floral complexity. A finishing note. Sometimes subtle. Sometimes unmistakable. One ingredient — completely different personalities depending on what surrounded it. And perhaps that's what made this collaboration between Louisa’s Honey x Thermomix so interesting to capture. It wasn't simply about putting honey into a dish. It was about discovering what else honey can do. 🍯🐝 📍 Festival Italia, Brands Hatch 🇮🇹 The Italian Kitchen 🍯 Presented by Louisa’s Honey x Thermomix Which honey would you be most curious to taste — Coriander, Citrus, Lime, Acacia or Ginger? taken in Brands Hatch Racing Circuit by @silverfoxcooks

Meet the judge 🍴James Skelton, Silver Fox Cooks   @silverfoxcooks is a PGA Golf professional by trade and in 2022 fulfilled one of his ambitions by appearing on series 18 of Masterchef, where he managed to reach the semifinals. Since appearing on the show, James has gone on to provide Private dining experiences, as well as supper clubs, weddings and functions and food judging. He has also worked at many food festivals, home shows and other food related events providing demonstrations for audiences and hosting other chefs on stage.   🗨️“I enjoy being a judge at the UK’s Quality Food Awards because it offers a unique opportunity to discover outstanding products and celebrate the innovation, passion, and craftsmanship that define the food and drink industry. It’s incredibly rewarding to see the level of care producers put into their products, from established brands to emerging challengers.   The Quality Food Awards play a vital role in setting benchmarks for excellence, giving both retailers and consumers confidence in the products they choose. What makes the awards particularly special is their credibility—every entry is rigorously judged by industry experts, ensuring that recognition is truly earned.”   Categories still open! 🍺Beer & Cider 🍸Sprits & Aperitifs 🍷Wine ❌Low/No Alcohol, RTD and Specialty Drinks   #UnitedKingdom #BritishFoodandDrink #UKQFDA26 #BritishFoodBusiness by @silverfoxcooks
