I bring Mexican, Caribbean, and Pan‑Asian flavors to your table

My name is Nathaniel, and I am a passionate chef with a diverse culinary background. While I specialize in Mexican cuisine, my expertise goes deep into Caribbean flavors, rooted in my Caribbean and Pan‑Asian heritage. I love experimenting with new ingredients and techniques to create innovative dishes that celebrate the richness of different cultures.

I have honed my craft in a range of vibrant kitchens and bars, including The Waterside, The Mitre Hotel, Beirkeller, Edison Bar, Mexicali, The Wheel, Strip Health Cafe, Se7en Brothers, and Feel Good Club. These experiences help me adapt to different dining styles and deliver memorable, guest‑focused meals at home.

Plan your menu with me

Food is its own universal language that transcends borders and connects people. Experimenting with new flavors and ingredients makes me happy.

What I bring to your table

I cook to connect cultures

Food is a universal language that lets me transcend borders and bring people together. I love experimenting with new flavors and ingredients, and I channel that curiosity into menus that feel joyful, inclusive, and deeply flavorful.

My training and journey

I honed my culinary skills at Wigan College and Salford College. I first learned to cook from a woman named Ivelline—her guidance shaped my foundations and still inspires the way I cook today.

Heart‑led cooking

I believe the heart of great cooking lives not only in technique, but in the joy and love I pour into every dish. I bring that care and intention to every service.
