A host of chefs and restaurants will be at Excel, London to take part in seasonal food festival Taste of Christmas on 4-6 December.
The wintertime sibling to the summer’s Taste of London, this gastronomic extravaganza will host 18 of London’s top restaurants all of whom will showcase their signature dishes.
Among the restaurants and chefs taking part include Bjorn van der Horst from Eastside Inn, Francesco Mazzei, chef-proprietor of Italian restaurant L’Anima and Pascal Aussignac, co-owner of Club Gascon.
Caterersearch.com caught up with the chefs in their kitchens, and was given a sneak preview of what will be on offer from their restaurant during the three-day event.
Watch van der Horst cook All Cremet, Mazzei prepare Capitone Eel stew and Nicolas Bellorguey pastry chef at Comptoir Gascon demonstrate the restaurant’s new signature dessert, Gascon Mess.
