Heston Blumenthal’s fascination with historic gastronomy

The savoury ice creams of the late 1800s, the theatre of the Tudor dining experiences, and the dishes of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland all resonated with his unique approach to cooking. Dedicated to the modern-day discovery and evolution of dining, he realised that the excitement and obsession with food is no new phenomenon. With this in mind, Heston created a menu that takes those discoveries and fascinations of history into a new and evolving modern dining experience.

Researching 14th century cookbooks such as those by the royal chefs of King Richard II to Lewis Carroll’s flights of fancy. Working with food historians, tapping into the world of the British Library and the team at King Henry VIII’s Hampton Court Palace the very modern dining experience of Dinner by Heston Blumenthal was born.
