Guest Chef January 2012: Nuno Mendes

A culinary world tour

Nuno Mendes’s dishes are not Portuguese, British or Japanese. They are a personal interpretation of his culinary experiences, which he has gathered at many restaurants around the world since completing his apprenticeship in San Francisco.

But even if his cuisine cannot be attached to one specific country, one thing is certainly true: It is highly creative and totally unusual – experimental global cuisine of the very highest order. The Portuguese chef is a master of combining unusual ingredients, and he loves to experiment with textures and flavours. His experiences, which he has soaked up during his travels and his work, are plain to see in his creations. In 2008, Mendes opened his current base, the Viajante (Portuguese: the traveller) restaurant in London’s East End, which finally brought him his long-overdue first Michelin star in January 2011.
