But like once you get a medicine star once in any restaurant, Michelin is doesn't matter where you are in the world, everybody knows who it's, unless everybody knows what a medicine star is.
Ever wondered how a farm boy could become one of the UK's top chefs? In this episode of 'Off Your Head', Paul McArdle sits down with Alex Greene, a chef whose journey is as flavorful as his dishes. Alex takes us back to his teenage years working on a farm and washing dishes at The Bucks Head, a local restaurant. He never imagined he'd rise to culinary fame, but fate had other plans.
Alex's story is a testament to hard work and perseverance. He moved from kitchen to kitchen, learning and growing with each experience. A pivotal moment came when he got his big break, leading him to compete on The Great British Menu. This opportunity catapulted him into the spotlight, proving that even the most unlikely beginnings can lead to extraordinary outcomes. The pandemic posed significant challenges for Alex, like it did for many in the hospitality industry.
Instead of giving up, he adapted by opening Tear's Butchers, a retail shop selling fresh, high-quality meats and other products. This venture not only kept him busy during lockdown but also allowed him to explore new avenues in his culinary career. Throughout his journey, Alex has remained grounded and focused on his love for food. He emphasizes the importance of setting clear goals and surrounding yourself with supportive people.
His humility and dedication are inspiring, offering valuable lessons for anyone striving to achieve their dreams. Tune in to hear Alex Greene's incredible story, filled with insights and inspiration that will leave you hungry for more.
