Thomasina Miers x Detox Kitchen

Food

Thomasina ‘Tommi’ Miers is one of the most celebrated female chefs, authors and entrepreneurs when it comes to seasonal, ethical and veg-centric cooking. She is well-known for her dishes that celebrate bold and dynamic flavours, particularly inspired by her travels in Mexico.

It was her stint in Mexico that inspired her to later open the successful line of restaurants with her business partner in London - Wahaca. She is also well known for her best-selling cookbooks, winning and judging on Masterchef, and her column in the Guardian’s Feast magazine.

Tommi’s work is propelled by a passion to make the world a better place through better food. All her dishes place biodiverse vegetables and whole foods at the centre of the plate. At the heart of her cooking is the philosophy that eating good food not only improves our health and wellbeing, but connects us to the planet and each other. In her words “Food, and the pleasure of eating together, can connect us to the millions of people who grow, gather, harvest, move, cook and sell our food … The fastest route to good health is to cook with whole ingredients; the fastest way to pleasure is to sit down and savour good food with the people you love. Let’s eat deliciously whenever and wherever possible and see mankind flourish.”

Those of you who have been around for a few years will have known that we previously joined forces with Tommi to create a collab of dishes that you all absolutely loved. So, it seemed a no-brainer to invite her to our kitchens to create a whole new range of even more vibrant, dynamic, extraordinary dishes for our new summer menu, that elevate and celebrate seasonal British produce, biodiversity, sustainability and flavour. With that, we bring you…
