My interview of the UK Pastry team in Paris was republished in the October issue of Chef & Restaurant magazine.  The interview was part of an 8 page article about the UK pastry team and their upcoming challenge in the Coupe du Monde de la Pâtisserie (Pastry World Cup) that is happening in Lyon at the end of January 2023.  For any chef who has sometime free in January, I would highly recommend going at watching the contest.  The event is filmed and shown live on various Television networks (not UK which is a shame) and is full of skill and drama. Many chefs from completing countries go there to support and cheer on thier team.

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.
