In this video, Jack and Will explore the dishes that shaped fine dining as we know it. From the grandeur of Carême’s royal French banquets to the arrival of Nouvelle cuisine, from black cod and miso redefining global flavour at Noma to the hyper-local revolution, these aren’t just recipes—they’re turning points in culinary history.

Shot inside our London restaurant, we’ve recreated seven moments that mark the evolution of food from survival to spectacle. Each plate tells the story of an era—what people valued, how they expressed status, and how ideas like luxury, precision, and sustainability entered the kitchen.

This is the story of fine dining, told one iconic dish at a time.
