Chris Horridge

Chris Horridge has recently joined Alan Murchison’s team – prior to joining, he was responsible for overseeing the smooth running and development of Cliveden’s three restaurants Waldo’s, The Terrace Restaurant and The Club Room.

In 2006, he was awarded a Michelin star whilst at The Bath Priory and retained it for over three years before moving to Cliveden. Under his direction, in 2008, International magazine Conde Nast Traveller recognised his previous restaurant with their ‘Gold List award for food’ one of only 18 Hotel restaurants globally. More recently and within two months of Chris’s arrival, Waldo’s restaurant has been rated by American food and wine magazine as being one of the world’s most exiting restaurants to eat in 2009.

Chris is pioneering what he terms ’3 dimensional cuisine’ which is based on presentation, flavour and nutrition. Every item in a dish is prepared to ensure the nutrients remain; and through study with various English university scientists and a nutritionalist his restaurant cuisine is now virtually milk, cream and sugar free with no loss of flavour – in fact many would claim the opposite.
