Discover Our Guest Chefs
Our open kitchen is home to an ever-changing line-up of talented chefs who share our passion for amazing cooking, friendly service and unique shared experiences. 250 and counting, from over 50 different cities and 30 different countries around the world.
We’re open Tuesdays to Saturdays with a new guest chef joining us every week. We offer a set menu and there’s just one sitting, starting at 7pm. Please let us know of any dietary requirements when you book in.
For the complete Carousel experience, please feel free to join us in the wine bar for drinks beforehand. In fact, we actively encourage it…
Burns Night -
Celebrating the life and work of Scotland’s national poet, we’ve assembled a quartet of the country’s finest chefs for a one-night-only eight-hands dinner, featuring Edinburgh’s Heron, Ullapool’s The Dipping Lugger and Glasgow’s Epicures.
Nargisse Benkabbou - L'MIDA, MARRAKECH
Bringing a 'breath of fresh air' to Moroccan cuisine, Nargisse is a best-selling author and executive chef of L'Mida, Marrakech, where each dish is a joyful celebration of her heritage. If you’re not already a fully-fledged Moroccan food fanatic, get ready to be speedily converted.
Iñaki Bolumburu -
Iñaki has been popping up around the world with a succession truly stunning tasting menus that reflect both his proud Basque heritage and his culinary adventures in the kitchens of Mugaritz, Pure C, Noma and Nerua, where he learnt from the very best. Next stop, London.
Dave Harrison - BRASSERIE PRINS, COPENHAGEN
After making small plates magic at legendary wine bar Den Vandrette for the past three years, Dave is gearing up for the opening of Brasserie Prins, his first solo venture. There he will do what he does best: French cuisine with a focus on old school regional classics and an unashamedly nose-to-tail approach.
Pablo Díaz - DORA LA TOSTADORA, GUATEMALA CITY
In Guatemala City, Pablo Díaz has quietly been revolutionising the country's favourite snack: the tostada. What started out as a bit of fun, pop-up Dora La Tostadora has picked up a cult following far and wide, even appearing in the pages of the New York Times.
Mathieu Rostaing-Tayard - SILLON, BIARRITZ
Mathieu is of the most talented French chefs of his generation. Don’t believe us? Just ask Le Fooding®, who awarded him this year’s prestigious ‘Fooding d’Honneur’ award in recognition of Mathieu's singular contribution to the art of explosive neo-bistro cooking.

Chef Stories
Wild – A State of Mind
Here we reflect on the endless creative possibilities of wild ingredients with The Botanist and their crew of foraging chefs.
Our collaboration with The Botanist opens up the Carousel kitchen to some of the most talented forager-chefs from around the British Isles who use ingredients like these as we might use salt and pepper. As well as introducing you to some surprising and unexpected flavours, together we hope to illustrate that there is opportunity and inspiration everywhere, in every city park and along every country lane. A drink need never be the same again, and that’s something well worth raising a glass to.
