Today we’re joined on Honey & Co. The Food Sessions by British chef and television personality, Michael O'Hare. Known for his innovative, experimental, art-inspired cuisine and signature "rockstar" personal style, Michael gained prominence as the chef-patron of the Michelin-starred restaurant The Man Behind The Curtain in Leeds. He initially studied aeronautical engineering and trained as a pilot before discovering his passion for cooking in his mid-twenties, training at prestigious restaurants, including Noma in Copenhagen and L'Ortolan. He also studied classical and modern ballet in his youth, which he credits as an influence on his artistic approach to food presentation. Michael is such a character and we had a lot of fun talking about his journey to the kitchen and the things that bring him joy in his life.About the Joy SeasonThe world feels like a lot right now, and it can be hard to find those small moments that make us smile. In restaurants, we get three chances a day to bring joy — breakfast, lunch and dinner — but it doesn’t stop there. This season, The Joy Season, we’ll be talking to some truly brilliant people about the sparks of joy that keep them going, on and off the plate.Michael O'Hare's Joy ManualRestaurant: Aponiente, CadizFilm: F1, dir Joseph KasinskiPlace: FranceAdvice: Find something that makes you happy and do it often**bonus question** Piece of clothing/accessory that brings you joy: Hedi Slimane 2005 Dior Homme shoes, a pair in gold & a pair in silverAbout Our SponsorBring more joy to your workday — and your team — with Blink, the mobile platform built for busy restaurant teams.
