As chefs look to support local producers, we’re seeing more and more British cheeses on menus around the country.
Chef James Carn and his wife Sophia opened Lark in Bury St Edmunds in February 2023. Despite a shoestring budget (but generous friends and family) – initially having to borrow chairs from the nearby pub, and kitchen equipment from supportive chef pals – they found their feet.
A blazingly talented chef who cooks with vigour, authority and audacious brio, Brett Graham has been hailed as a pioneer in the development of British modernism – delivering the kind of cooking that saw The Ledbury (which opened in 2005) catapulted into the first division of London dining. The restaurant closed in 2020 when Covid-19 restrictions made it too difficult to operate, but it reopened, relatively quietly, in February 2022. Here, we look at its earliest entry to the Guide in 2007, with inspectors hailing a ‘superbly judged’ raviolo of crab and a meat dish that proved to be a ‘lesson in balance’.
