Matt Tebbutt

An 'honorary Welshman' since the age of six months, chef Matt Tebbutt is passionate about British cuisine, seasonal produce and getting back to nature.

After graduating from the prestigious Leith's School of Food & Wine in London, Matt landed a prestigious traineeship with Marco Pierre White, followed by a stint of classic French cooking at Chez Bruce. Moving on to work for his hero Alistair Little, he picked up tips on high-quality, rustic cooking and seasonal ingredients.

In 2001, Matt and his wife Lisa took over The Foxhunter pub in Nantyderry, South Wales, turning it into an award-winning restaurant with a daily-changing menu. A foraging fan, Matt features recipes designed to highlight his wild finds.

As well as working hard in the kitchen, Matt's built a career on camera, presenting Market Kitchen on the Good Food Channel and appearing on The Great British Menu and Saturday Kitchen for the BBC. Alongside fellow Leith's graduate Gizzi Erskine, Matt now presents Drop Down Menu on C4, challenging celebs and guest chefs to cook up tasty dishes in minutes.
