Discover Our Guest Chefs
Our open kitchen is home to an ever-changing line-up of talented chefs from around the world who share our philosophy on what eating out should be all about: amazing cooking, friendly service, a relaxed environment and a shared experience from one table to the next.
Advanced bookings mean less food wastage, which is a good thing for us but an even better thing for the planet.
One sitting – doors open at 7pm for a 7.45pm start.
Toni Toivanen - AKI 秋 (HELSINKI)
Fresh from three years overseeing the development kitchen at INUA in Tokyo, Helsinki’s hottest young chef export brings a welcome slice of Nordic-Japanese optimism to Marylebone with his new project, Aki 秋, meaning 'bright' in Japanese.
Brad Carter - (CARTERS OF MOSELEY)
The staff meals at Carters of Moseley are the stuff of legend. As are the ‘mortadöners’ that Brad’s been spinning over lockdown. But we’re here to talk about Brad’s multi-course tasting menus, because that's what you lucky b*stards will be experiencing when he joins us in the kitchen in just a few week’s time.
Lee Westcott x The Botanist - (LONDON)
Returning from the Herefordshire-Worcestershire border, where he steered Pensons to a Michelin star just seven months after opening, Lee is partnering with our friends from The Botanist to shine a light on some of the tastiest wild ingredients the season has to offer.
Alex Bond x The Botanist - ALCHEMILLA (NOTTINGHAM)
Awarded its first Michelin star last year, Alchemilla was one of the guide’s top picks, singled out for Alex’s “perfect understanding of the way we want to eat now.” Partnering with The Botanist, he'll be showing us why it's his alchemist’s approach to unsung ingredients that makes him one of the most progressive and exciting chefs in the country.
Harriet Mansell x The Botanist - ROBIN WYLDE (DORSET)
Harriet Mansell opened Robin Wylde in the autumn to critical acclaim with a nine-course tasting menu celebrating the diversity and abundance of ‘wylde’ West Country produce, making her the perfect match for the third chapter of our Carousel x The Botanist series.
Joo Won - (LONDON)
Originally from Busan, South Korea’s second city, Joo Won's rather brilliant approach to cooking marries seasonal British and European ingredients and techniques with “just a little accent of Korea”.

From bona fide legends to the superstars of tomorrow, each week we welcome a new chef into the Carousel family.
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.
