Heston Blumenthal is the culinary alchemist whose appliance of science to the art of cooking (called molecular gastronomy by some and kitchen science by Heston Blumenthal) makes eating at his Fat Duck restaurant in Bray an innovative and revolutionary experience.
 
Heston Blumethal’s unusual and scientific approach to techniques and flavours (snail porridge and nitrogen-cooked green tea and lime sour, for example) has elevated the Fat Duck to one of just three Michelin-starred establishments in the UK today.

In addition to his more futuristic endeavours, Heston Blumenthal is also a champion of classic British dishes, the focus of his pub and hotel the Hind’s Head (also in Bray) and his most recent TV series, In Search of Perfection.
