Master of the House The Recipe

    • Food

Today, Garrey Dylan Dawson is the general manager at Henne Kirkeby Kro — a Michelin-starred restaurant on the west coast of Denmark. But that scarcely scratches the surface of the former chef's long and illustrious career in the industry.
His highlights reel includes a decade as the head chef at The Fat Duck — alongside Heston Blumenthal — when it won its three Michelin stars; a long-running stint on one of the UK’s best-loved food programmes, Ready, Steady Cook; and a move to Denmark, where he forged a formidable relationship with chef Paul Cunningham at Henne.
In episode seven, we discover how Garrey broke into fine dining; why he turned down a job with “one of the godfathers of cooking”, Raymond Blanc; what it was like working with Heston Blumenthal; why he decided to leave the kitchen to focus on front-of-house operations; how he gets the best of his team; and why he rarely eats at Michelin-starred restaurants.
