Who We’ve Worked With
Testimonials
Jeremy King OBE
Restaurateur
I have had the double pleasure of both working with Kevin Gratton and watching him develop from a chef into a restaurateur. Over the years I have been very taken by the swiftness with which he grasped the holistic approach needed to be a restaurateur and his natural understanding of the fundamental need of being inspiring. I would have no hesitation in recommending Kevin as a great asset to anyone looking to improve their operation.
Ewan Venters OBE
CEO of Artfarm
Kevin is one of the strongest chef operators I know; creative, focussed and gets the job done. His passion, attention to detail and knowledge are evident through his food and a real delight to experience.
Mark Hix MBE
Chef / Restaurateur
Kevin and I have worked together for many many years and probably more than most people’s careers in the restaurant business.
We have also travelled the world running events and cooking dinners from Tokyo to Dartmouth, New York to L.A. and what better a partner to take on tour than Kevin Gratton.
Nick Jones MBE
Founder of Soho House
Kevin Gratton worked for me as Executive Chef at Soho House, responsible for all the kitchens based in the U.K.
Along with the day to day running of the business, Kevin was involved with chefs’ recruitment and training, menu planning and development, supplier relationships and kitchen design. Delivering consistently high standards, while improving efficiencies and fiscal awareness with the people he mentors, Kevin is no doubt an asset to provide support to any operation.
