8 Iconic Dishes from Heston Blumenthal

8 ICONIC DISHES FROM HESTON BLUMENTHAL

Next time you find yourself in a pub tucking into delicious triple cooked chips, or come across an otherwise run of the mill chef dallying with crazily flavoured savoury ice cream, you probably have one person to thank: Heston Blumenthal.

The British chef needs no real introduction of course: famous the world over for his experiments with molecular cuisine, he currently holds three Michelin stars at The Fat Duck in Bray, while Dinner by Heston in London, helmed by friend and protégé Ashley Palmer-Watts, currently holds two.

Earlier this year, Blumenthal was awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award at The World’s 50 Best Restaurants. Here are some of his and Palmer Watts's most iconic dishes.
