Five Courses with Neal Jackson

  • The 3 most important things in cooking.“Taste, taste and taste. As you get older, you build up a repertoire of
    flavours that you know will go together.”
  • Creating new dishes.“The most important elements for creating a new dish are good produce and an idea that
    might trigger some inspiration.”
  • Provide the complete package. “It’s not just about the food, it’s about the whole dining experience, the wine, the
    service, everything.”
  • Quality staff is essential. “When you do come across a professional waiter that aspires to be a maitre’d or a
    sommelier, they’re like gold, you really need to hang onto those people.”
  • Love your work. “I get a lot of pleasure out of seeing customers happy with what I’ve given them to eat and it’s
    extremely satisfying. I consider myself very lucky.”
