Catering Innovation, A Shared Ethos



Contemporary event caterer Food Show and acclaimed chef Jason Atherton commence a new partnership

Food Show are delighted to announce a new partnership with Michelin starred chef Jason Atherton, the creative culinary mind behind one of the most celebrated restaurants in London, Pollen Street Social.



The partnership is the result of a shared ethos in both parties' approach to food and fine dining; prioritising the importance of fresh locally sourced ingredients, culinary flair and inventive dining experiences.

Andrew Gosling, Food Show CEO, explained 'Both Food Show and Jason are focused on quality, provenance and superior service; but the real affinity comes from our approach to fine dining experiences, an understated manner and an honest thirst to create excellent modern menus. We are fun, informal and
customer friendly. This partnership is an exploration and an extension of the egalitarian ethos of Food Show, and as a contemporary event caterer I think this is where we stand out.'

Food Show was founded 22 years ago and still remains a private company under Andrew's direction. The new partnership will see Jason working alongside Food Show's Director of Food, Max Uyanik, developing an exciting range of bespoke menus. Food Show has a reputation for delivering spectacular events across the industry, and will now engage Jason for exclusive event appearances.

Jason's impressive credentials and unrivalled experience have seen him work alongside high profile chefs including Pierre Koffman, Nico Ladenis, Stephen Terry and Marco Pierre White. Jason famously created the concept for Gordon Ramsey's Maze restaurant in Mayfair. Whilst at Maze Jason honed his love and aptitude for inventive, small sharing plates and developed the style into his, now, signature deformalized gourmet experience.

Jason's eagerly anticipated solo venture Pollen Street Social has achieved a rarely paralleled success; awarded a Michelin Star within the first year of opening, London's Best New Fine Dining Restaurant in the Time Out Eating & Drinking Awards 2011, BMW Square Meal Restaurant of the Year 2011 and Good Food Guide

Restaurant of the Year. Jason was also the recipient of Chef  of the Year at the coveted 2012 Catey Awards.

Jason said 'Partnering with Food Show will enable me to create innovative food design for a new type of client in the catering and event space. My own reputation for serving modern British food with Asian nuances has a major emphasis on seasonal produce and regional specialities and it this approach that I share with Food Show - a love for fresh, seasonal produce and flexible high-end dining which is paramount to the collaboration. It is on these building blocks that I hope to raise the profile of Food Show to have the notability it deserves and to offer Food Show clients a new experience.'

A recipe for perfect Yorkshire pudding

Image
A lot is spoken about Yorkshire pudding but is in not such a very difficult thing to do. All it is, is a batter mix that is put in a mould with some oil so that it soufflés up as it bakes. As long as you follow a few simple rules then you should have a perfect pudding every time. To make the batter you will need. 125g/8oz plain flour 300ml/¾ pint milk 2 eggs Pinch of salt Some vegetable oil. Now a lot of propel say that you need a strong bread flour to make a god batter for Yorkshire puddings but I have found that over time it does not really matter. But if you are going to use a strong flour let it rest for a little longer to allow the glutens to start working and get soaked up in the liquid . Take you flour and sift it in to a bowel to make sure that you do not get any lumps. Then make a well in the middle and crack your eggs in to that. Now taking a whisk start to work the eggs in to the flour. It will start to from a thick paste. If you think that it is getting to hard to work then
