Margot and Fergus Henderson, are, in my opinion, THE most important couple i Food and Drink.

Together, they changed the British gastronomic landscape from meek, tepid swamp of meh to global powerhouse it is today.

Fergus created the institution St. John and Nose-To-Tail Cooking, inspiring so many chefs.

Margot forged her own path with Rochelle Canteen, inspiring female chefs to enter the kitchen or as Margot says a world of “Blokedom”.

Rochelle Canteen is a little oasis, springing and blossoming out Shoreditch streets.

A light escape from heavy monotony.

White and Spacious, always capacious as the seasons capriciously flow:

WI.NT.e.r - SpRiIIINg - Suuu mmm -eerr - A..u..t..t…umN

Margot’s food is wonderfully imperfect. Like humans, it’s craggly, squirly, yummy and not-too-perfect

My goal was to really dig deep into how Margot and Fergus changed British food, their similarities and differences, Rochelle Canteen’s uniqueness, St. Johns genius.

Hopefully (fingers, eyes, toes crossed) we did that.
