Welcome to The Wilder Kitchen
The Wilder Kitchen is a way of cooking, eating, and connecting with nature. I draw on my experiences in wild places, in other cultures, and the seasons I find myself in to explore the relationship between food, fire, and the outdoors. Every dish is inspired by the Scottish landscape and the incredible local producers and foragers I work with. Supporting small, local businesses and sustainability is at the heart of everything I do.
The experiences I create across Scotland, and increasingly in England and Wales, focus on what we can source locally, celebrating the joy of cooking and eating outdoors while fostering a deep respect for the land and the people who nurture it.
Outdoor cooking
Supper clubs, workshops & collaborations
Cooking with fire allows you an insight into the dialogue of the wilderness and a glimpse into our primal history. Outside, cooking is reinvigorated, reimagined and returned to its most natural state, where ingredients are married to the burning embers, completing a process that traces back thousands of years.
I'm always looking to share this passion for food, fire and good produce. If you would like to inquire about private dining or hosting myself and my team for events or supper clubs then get in touch at info@thewilderkitchen.co.uk
Experience
William has travelled the world, working in kitchens that have shaped his approach and inspired his creativity. He completed a stage at the award-winning Hiša Franko, a Two Michelin Starred restaurant in Slovenia featured in Chef's Table.
Today, William’s work revolves around creating open-fire dining experiences across Scotland, collaborating with brands such as William Grant & Sons. He connects food, fire, and nature with an ethos of supporting local businesses and suppliers, sourcing the finest organic and sustainable ingredients.
"Watching William cook is an unforgettable experience, he is a true master of his craft. He has a passion and dedication which is intoxicating. If you can, you should make the journey to experience his food."
