Described by many as a true culinary heavyweight, Simon Rogan and his partner Penny own L'Enclume, a restaurant with rooms, in the Lake District. After 3 years, it won its first Michelin star. L'Enclume has gone on to achieve many accolades, including a 10/10 rating and #1 ranking in the Waitrose Good Food Guide 2014, a second Michelin star in 2013, and full five rosettes from the AA Restaurant Guide.
Over the past 25 years Simon has developed a distinctive, inventive cooking technique, which is inspired by his love of home-grown British ingredients. This has translated over the years into his hugely successful and ever-expanding empire of restaurants.
