In this episode of the podcast I talked to James Sherwin.

We talked about how he became a chef, where he gets inspiration and the impact of Covid-19

James, @chefjamesherwin is an Extraordinary Eclectic Experimental Chef, a keen forager and Owner of Wild Shropshire restaurant,  in his home county of Shropshire.

You may recognise James him from his appearances on the Channel 4 show ‘The Taste’ where he worked alongside 12 other chefs as the kitchen heated up, with his French mentor, Ludo Lefebvre. Now this former Paediatric nurse has evolved from a home cook to a professional chef who is not afraid to push the boundaries.

Beginning with his Pop up restaurant experiences which were the result of years of dreaming and wanting to create art with food, he then created Wild Shropshire which was initially meant to be a year long project looking at the county and its ‘bounty,’ but what began as a small idea, has now become the philosophy that  encapsulates what, how and why he cooks. The project is completely led by what grows and what can be farmed in Shropshire and more accurately within the small area that he lives.

He works with Gamekeepers and Farmers along with other Artisans within Shropshire which will give a uniquely “Shropshire” experience.
