Description
The idea of Krafty kitchen came about after visiting old friends in Cornwall, it’s something that I’ve dreamed about for many years but just wasn’t sure what it would be. To be honest it could be many things and that’s where the name came from.
The “Krafty” part was due to the flexibility of my own skills and my craft as a chef and the “Kitchen”, well that goes without saying.
I purchased and converted a horsebox trailer throughout the winter of 2018 and launched in May 2019, so there we have it “Krafty Kitchen” – a mobile kitchen that offers personal bespoke catering. So far we have catered at venues such as Archerfield Walled Garden, 40th birthday parties, vintage car shows, weddings and public events such as the Dunbar battle re-enactments.
I’ve been a professional chef for over 25 years, working in various catering establishments, from the leafy Oxfordshire Cotswolds, the beautiful Lake District and lots between before finally settling in East Lothian. I previously worked for ten years at the Royal Botanic Garden as the Executive Chef.
