Ep. 53 Aaron Teece (The Valley Estate)

When I started my apprenticeship many years ago, and dabbling with wild and native foods as a chef, Aaron was one of the first people I started following that was utilizing them in an out of the box way that made it engaging enough for me to try it myself. It was inspiring, and pushed me to find new ways to make these ingredients accessible to diners myself. Now it’s at the core of all my dishes. So cheers for the motivation and inspiration Aaron, you’re a bloody legend.

We talk about the book Aaron is working on, the interesting change between new and old chefs and what it was like working with Adam Wolfers and Josh Niland at the 3 hatted Est. under Peter Doyle. Also, why the hell did Aaron get pulled over in Spain by the cops?
