Trish & Tom will be joining Monique in the Cookery School to demonstrate a selection of “Gastro Style” dishes. Their dishes have a distinctive style of food that is fresh simple and rustic.

Tom and Trish Hilferty are two of the most highly respected chefs working in London today, with careers which take in such legendary places as The Eagle, The Fox and currently Great Queen Street and The Anchor and Hope. They have also contributed significantly to a canon of the more enlightened, creative and serious food writing of our times; via columns and articles, in broadsheets and magazines, but perhaps most impressively of all through their highly-praised and award-winning books, such as Tom's "Just Like Mother Used to Make" and Trish's "Gastropub Classics" and "Fish and Chips".
