Lawrence-Keogh
Peyton and Byrne has appointed TV star Lawrence Keogh as executive chef at the Royal Botanical Gardens, Kew.
The chef – who has appeared on Saturday Kitchen and James Martin’s Brittany series – will oversee four Kew restaurants, which cater for an estimated 1.35m visitors a year.
Keogh brings over 20 years’ experience to the job, including stints at D&D’s The Avenue, Roast and The Wolseley, where he was head chef for four years until 2015.
“I am very much looking forward to working with Peyton and Byrne at Kew," said Keogh. “Being such an iconic attraction, I am delighted to be building on its success, showcasing the best of British through its menus and dining experiences."
