This year the incredible line-up of chefs is travelling from across the world including Italy, Australia, Portugal, China, USA, Japan, Slovenia and from several locations in the UK.
Chef patron of Northcote, Nigel Haworth said: "This year we’ve pushed the boundaries again, bringing an even greater variety of chefs from around the world. It’s great to have Tony Baker of Montrio Bistro in Monterey, who was instrumental in me cooking at the Festival of Food and Wine in Carmel, California, in 1999 – this was my inspiration for Obsession.
"What started as a little celebration for our customers, has become
a monster event that has gained real solidity and acclaim, a genuine festival that people at the top of their profession want to take part in and be associated with. I know you’re going to love Obsession 17!"

The Staff Canteen has always been more than a website—it’s a community, built by and for hospitality. We share the wins, the challenges, the graft, and the inspiration that keeps kitchens alive.
We believe in staying open to everyone, but creating this content takes real resources. If you’ve ever found value here—whether it’s a recipe, an interview, or a laugh when you needed it most—consider giving just £3 to keep it going.
A little from you keeps this space free for all. Let’s keep lifting the industry, together.
