About Us
Dubbed the godfather of modern cooking, the first rock-star chef and original ‘enfant terrible’, Marco Pierre White is a renowned chef, restaurateur and TV personality and is one of the world’s most recognisable chefs.
He has led the UK restaurant scene for over 30 years and is regarded by many to have single-handedly dragged it to being at the forefront of modern gastronomy.
He helped kick-start the careers of many famous chefs, including Gordon Ramsay, Heston Blumenthal and Jason Atherton, all of whom trained under him and his acclaimed book, White Heat, is regarded as having influenced the careers of several Michelin-starred and celebrity chefs, being described by one critic as "possibly the most influential recipe book of the last 20 years".
He was also the first British chef and the youngest at the time to be awarded three Michelin stars.
Alongside the Marco Pierre White Restaurants team, he is now dedicated to rolling-out his restaurant concepts to share his love and passion for food.
With over 30 restaurants, the focus is to deliver good quality food at affordable prices.
The current concepts include Marco Pierre White Steakhouse Bar & Grill, Marco’s New York Italian, Mr White’s English Chophouse, Mr White’s by Marco Pierre White, Bardolino Pizzeria Bellini & Espresso Bar, Wheeler’s Fish & Chips.
As Marco says, he ‘puts interest where there is no interest.’
Marco has also taken his philosophy on dining out overseas, resulting in the opening of two international restaurants in Abu Dhabi.
More recently, Marco was one of the main draws on a new subscription-based service that has been set up to inspire all chefs and cooks onto greater things. Called BBC Maestro, it’s a platform that lets people learn and be inspired through courses taught by experts in their craft. A host of top talents, from a range of different fields, deliver video courses to teach everything people need to know to follow in their aspirational footsteps so it's great to see him get involved with this great new service.
