Amy Crowther

About

I’m Amy, a private chef based in North London. After training at Leiths and Ballymaloe Cookery School, I spent four years cooking at the River Café, where I developed a deep appreciation for simple, seasonal cooking and exceptional ingredients.

My cooking is rooted in seasonality, with a focus on using ingredients when they are at their best — full of flavour, freshness and goodness. I love food that feels generous and unfussy, while still being carefully considered and beautiful.

I cater for dinner parties and events, as well as offering weekly meal prep and food deliveries for families who want to eat well without the work involved in planning and cooking every day.
