About Me
Hi, my name is Adam Leyland-Simpson.
I have been in the trade for over 9 years.
My Journey began at college, where I studied and learned the hospitality and catering craft. I focused myself on a front of house position first, understanding the importance of serving food to the highest standards.
Over the years I have developed a real passion for cooking challenging myself at any opportunity.
I have now gained experience working at a variety of hotels and restaurants including Michelin.
I also undertook two training programes called Chefs' academy and HIT Training where I received the highest distinction grades.
I have entered competitions such as the nestle proffessionals Toque t'or, where I reached the national heats. In 2018 I applied for the HIT Masterchef competition which I won. Then in 2019 I applied for the regional chef of the year for the north within a prestigious independent hospitality provider, which I won.
What We Offer...
A selection of menus of my own creation or the option to create your own menu. I am also available for business or event hire.

"We used Adam for our exclusive “Fine Dining” experience at our business, the food was second to none and the service was impeccable.
Adam catered for around 30 covers and had a multiple choice menu to deliver, of which he did without any problems or fuss.
Every guest we had on the evening complimented Chef Adam and the high quality of the food, which was locally sourced and from sustainable suppliers.
We would definitely hire Chef Adam for future events".
"Adam has helped us numerous times with our catering. He is great at working under pressure and can cater to individual needs. He is great at working with clients of all backgrounds and can build up a great rapport with them. We would have no problem in recommending him and his services".
"Adam has created some of the best dishes I've seen from my time in training. His appreciation for seasonal, quality ingredients, paired with his knowledge of flavour combinations and attention to detail means you're always in for something special!"
