Ed Hough - Trailblazing co-founder of Safari Series talks plastic surgery ice breakers, food time travel and looking your gremlins in the eye

Ed and Moon Hough founded the incredible Safari Series, in the foothills of Mount Kenya to bring a more modern, ecological and equitable safari experience to the country. Their passion and vision are infectious. I was lucky enough to chef at this unique camp for a month this year and it was life changing. Their philosophy, gorgeous team and camp are unique.

Ed is as idiosyncratic and fun as the lodge itself. Never short of a brilliant story or an exciting project, the whole experience grabbed me by the scruff and made it very hard to leave!

Ed and Moon have recently opened a location in Lamu, which is where Ed was talking to me from, in between Dawa cocktails. So you may hear some nature along with more Dawas arriving!
