Chef of the Year
IN ASSOCIATION WITH
Alex Standen Premium Lounges head chef - BaxterStorey travel British Airways lounges
I've worked with Alex now for seven years and the level of pure culinary genius is out of this world. From dishes from around the world to suit every pass through client tasting, through knowledge and drinks pairing, not just in the kitchen but around the whole business, is truly unique and nothing is ever too much to ask, whether it's flavour profile, drinks or just a chat about seasonal local products.
