"Probably the calmest man working with fire. Matt has an ability to create the highly improbable into the most amazing dish . From Asado lamb to tarte tartin the chef is a true artist without ego . A genuine black swan."

"This year Matt provided fire and chef support to both Meatopia London and Guinness X Meatopia, keeping the fires hot and the chefs not, and cooking to spec for some of the worlds best live-fire chefs on our Cutting Room stage.All this is always achieved with skill, aplomb and the minimum of fuss. Cheers Matt!"

"I was introduced to Matt upon arrival at meatopia via the guys of London log company. I was going into the unknown as I’ve never cooked over fire and especially cooking a whole beast, but I was reassured I was in good hands and I was we. We split the goat and began the fire!! Matt taught me on controlling the fire temperature and working it around the beast. You can see his love and passion for what he does and if it’s fire and meat look no further and what also helps he’s a solid stand up guy"
