Michael Caines, MBE, is a British chef who has created innovative dishes, earning him two Michelin stars and numerous awards, including ‘the UK’s best all round restaurant’ (Hardens) and ‘perfect in every way’ (Sunday Times). For the last three years his flag ship restaurant, Gidleigh Park in Devon has been voted second only to Heston Blumenthal’s Fat Duck as Britain’s best restaurant. In 1994 he became Head Chef at Gidleigh Park and in 1999 earned his second Michelin Star. Shortly after starting, Michael lost his right arm in a car accident but returned to work within the month. ‘What my accident did was focus my mind,’ he explains. With 20 years at Gidleigh Park, Michael is now a partner and director of the Abode Hotels group and ‘Michael Caines Restaurants’ in Exeter, Canterbury, Manchester, Chester, Glasgow and Bath. He has cooked at 10 Downing Street for the Prime Minister and participated in the BBC’s Great British Menu for the Queen’s 80th birthday.
