Sharon Smith

Head Chef | Leaf & Ladle

BIO

Sharon Smith’s culinary journey began in the heart of rural North Cornwall, where she was raised within a large, close-knit family that cherished the tradition of growing their own produce and cooking from scratch. This environment fostered a deep-rooted connection to the land and an unwavering commitment to seasonal cooking. Her family's playful yet passionate competition in the kitchen ensured that baking skills were honed and passed down through generations, cultivating Sharon’s enthusiasm for creating nourishing, vibrant meals.

As a mother, Sharon’s passion for seasonal cooking blossomed further. With access to a vast greenhouse brimming with organic produce, she creatively incorporated these nutritionally rich vegetables into her children’s diets, nurturing a deep bond with the seasons and the soil. For Sharon, cooking is not just about nourishment but about serving others with heart and soul, bringing her culinary gifts to the table.

Sharon is known for crafting exquisite celebration feasts that are not only delicious but visually stunning, served in bespoke bowls with hand-carved spoons. Her attention to detail, intuition, and love for food result in dining experiences that transcend mere nutrition, featuring delicious dips and dollops, fruity freshness, sumptuous salads, and moreish mini-morsels—all beautifully garnished with microgreens, edible flowers, and toasted seeds.

In addition to her culinary talents, Sharon is dedicated to creating an inclusive and sustainable dining experience. She will work closely with you to develop bespoke menus that perfectly match your tastes, the composition of your party, and the occasion at hand. Sharon’s commitment to inclusivity shines through in every dish, showcasing the most inclusive and sustainable diet available—one that is regenerative for both the planet and the people who inhabit it.

Beyond the menu, Sharon can also organize drinks and refreshments as part of a reception for your event, ensuring that every aspect of your celebration is thoughtfully curated and executed with care.
