Akané Monavon - (PARIS)
New year, old friends. We’re delighted to welcome Akané Monavon back into the fold. Akané is a chef with a truly international perspective. Working under legends like Virgilio Martínez and Dominique Crenn, she’s spent the last fourteen years cooking in renowned kitchens the world over, developing a laid back, French-Japanese style that’s delicate, understated and out-of-this-world delicious.
Saransh Goila - (MUMBAI)
Saransh Goila has single-handedly turned Butter Chicken into a religion in India. The key is the tomato to dairy ratio - 80:20 as opposed to the usual 60:40 - and, crucially, the infusion of smoke. It’s not just his 277,000 Instagram followers who have lost their sh*t over his signature take on the classic Indian dish, it’s the whole country...
Omer Shadmi & Daniel Zur - (TEL AVIV)
Meet lifelong friends Omer and Daniel. Between them the pair have risen through the ranks of acclaimed kitchens like The Barbary, Pauly Saal and L28. Now they’re busy creating something of their own that will weave together Israeli and Middle Eastern influences and showcases their love of fresh, colourful ingredients and bold flavours.
Ernesto ‘Kut’ Gómez - (VANCOUVER)
Owner of two Mexican favourites - acclaimed ‘North Pacific Mexican’ fine dining spot, Fayuca, and artisanal tortillería, Chancho - Vancouver renaissance man Ernesto ‘Kut’ Gómez is a passionate advocate of Mexico’s breathtaking biodiversity and its indigenous cultures and traditions. His creative menus are a 'Kut' above the rest (sorry not sorry).

Chef Stories
ROSIE BIRKETT : View From the Outside
Food writer, chef and one-time Carousel resident, Rosie Birkett, talks us through her week at Carousel cooking recipes from her debut cookbook, A Lot On Her Plate.
Writing my first cookbook, A Lot On Her Plate, was one of the most challenging, creative and rewarding projects I’ve ever embarked on. As anyone who writes for a living knows, putting fingers to keyboard and bashing out a body of work that you can feel proud of involves a hell of a lot of solitary, thoughtful time – even if it’s a cookbook rather than a prose piece.
