During the 6 month period of when 'The Fat Duck Flew South' to take up temporary residence in Melbourne, we set to work refurbishing the kitchen at the restaurants permanent home in Bray.
A brand new extension was granted and provided us the ability to completely re-think how the kitchen operated. Working alongside Group Exec Chef, Ashley Palmer Watts and Head Chef Jonny Lake, we set about re-evaluating the space.
The kitchen now provides a great platform for future culinary developments for the team in its continued food journey.
SHW worked with The Fat Duck executive chef, Ashley Palmer-Watts, to develop the designs for Heston Blumenthal's new restaurant, The Perfectionists' Cafe at Heathrow Terminal 2.
Opening on June 4th, when the state-of-the-art terminal begins operations, Heston’s restaurant will celebrate the best of British, serving the nation’s favourite dishes.
An estimated 55,000 passengers will arrive and depart from the terminal every day, so SHW’s kitchen and foodservice area will need to enable restaurant staff to deliver top-flight cuisine, quickly and efficiently.

Heston Blumenthal is known for his big ideas – and Dinner by Heston Blumenthal, his new restaurant in London, is no different. “When I was designing the kitchen,” he says, “I was like a little kid going ‘I want one of those, and I want to put it over there – upside down’.” Gareth Sefton from SHW was charged with making sense of it all. “I sketched it all out on a piece of paper,” says Heston. “But Gareth was the one who had to make it a reality.”
Head chef Ashley Palmer-Watts was also involved in the design process, which he says was a dream come true. “Heston and I created the dishes from scratch – and then set about creating the perfect place to cook them.”
As part of the design process, Gareth went to work at Heston’s Fat Duck restaurant. “He needed to understand what we were doing – the workflow,” says Ash. “So I was with him saying, ‘This is what I mean by sous-vide’. He got to know what I needed. And, when it came to designing the kitchen, it meant that he could ask the right questions.”
