In Big Chef, Little Chef (w/t), 3 Michelin starred chef and gastronomic alchemist Heston will take his revolutionary culinary and ingenious techniques into the world of the most conventional yet iconic of British brands - Little Chef. Last year, Little Chef was saved from financial collapse by venture capitalists RCapital. Now in its 50th anniversary year, the home of the Olympic breakfast and Jubilee pancake is still in need of creative inspiration. Enter British Chef Heston Blumenthal. The nostalgia of the Little Chef brand is a strong childhood memory for this chef but he will have to work his magic if he is to restore it to former glories. Big Chef, Little Chef (w/t) is the most extraordinary of culinary challenges - can a chef with a reputation for excellence and innovation transform the fortunes of a much loved but tired British institution?
