Yours Truly :: Common Ground 02
The second of Common Ground series dinner takes place at Yours Truly on January 30th and 31st, 2013.
The series provides an environment for collaboration and creativity to be shared within the walls of YT with Chef Jeff Claudio and good friends he has crossed paths with during his career abroad.
For our second edition of the series, our guest is Chef Tom Anglesea.
Tom began washing dishes in a local bistro in Durham, Northern England. After completing school he realized his passion lived in the kitchen and moved to London to work under Gordon Ramsay at Boxwood Cafe.
After 18 months at Boxwood Cafe, Tom expressed his desire to travel abroad and soon landed at Per Se in New York. At Per Se, Tom met his friends Guy and Britanny Manning whom he kept close with over the years.
After Per Se, Tom made his way to Australia where he met Yours Truly Chef Jeff Claudio at Rockpool in Sydney. Both Tom and Jeff went on to open Spice Temple under the Rockpool group and became good friends.
A year later, Tom and Jeff travelled throughout Europe together for 3 months where Tom staged at The Fat Duck in Berkshire and Noma in Copenhagen.
During this time Guy and Brittany from Tom's time in New York, were expecting their first child and asked if Tom would come work at Red Lion Freehouse for a month. Tom has been a part of the team ever since and this year Red Lion Freehouse received it's 1st Michelin star.
