Noted for his exceptional leadership and organisation skills, Gary has also overseen the training and inspiration of a 45-strong kitchen of talented young chefs: this led to him being recognised by Raymond Blanc, the critics, and his peers as a truly gifted technician.
Jones’s passion for and knowledge of seasonal, sustainable produce is reflected in Le Manoir’s menus; he works closely with the garden team, and values being able to harvest fresh produce ‘at the kitchen door’.
With this in mind, he visits the restaurant’s suppliers at their base, checking their credentials and fostering relationships to ensure that the ingredients used are always top in terms of quality, seasonality, sustainability and animal welfare.
