Tom Booton

What or who inspired you to become a chef?

I fell in love with the hustle of the kitchen the moment I stepped through the doors at Le Talbooth at 15. I thrive in the high pressure environment of a professional kitchen.

After working around the world Tom was invited to head up The Grill at The Dorchester - London.

Is it necessary to understand everything?

Yes, to ensure effective communication.

No, as long as the main points are understood.

It depends on the context.

Understanding everything is impossible anyway.
