The Fearless Kitchen 52: Whirlwind landing at Intercontinental London
Description
Fearlessness is part of my DNA. My parents never showed fear and were always adventurous. My sister and I have tended to follow the same path. I am not sure it is always admired from the outside, but it has been what has driven us to where we are today. And that, we all must own.
My time overseas post University was amazing. Living in London and securing a job at the Intercontinental on Hyde Park Corner, as an Aussie in my early 20s was wonderful. I remember flying down Sloane Street at the end of a shift, feeling like I belonged in this bold and vibrant city. I would cruise through Hyde Park, marching in my boots, bought on sale at Harvey Nicks and wander book stores whilst waiting on friends who were working at Harrods, who would mass exodus onto the street after their own shift had finished.
