  • In this exceptional episode, Action Bronson dines at St. John with its founders, chef Fergus Henderson and Trevor Gulliver. St. John is a London restaurant known for revitalizing British cuisine in the early 1990s. We cover all parts of the restaurant with Trevor and Fergus, from the kitchen to the bar, so the need for a drink and some food by the end of the episode will be greater than usual. Enjoy!

    Fergus Henderson is one of the greatest chefs of all time, and you can see how much respect Action speaks to him with. He really invented a whole new way of approaching British cuisine, making almost medieval sounding food like lamb's brains or pork trotter into something people want to eat. And as well as being delicious it's good for the environment and respectful to the farmer and the animal to use the entire thing, with no waste.
    If you're wondering why Fergus doesn't really speak in the video, it's because he has Parkinsons disease, so struggles with that sort of thing now & isn't able to be in the kitchen every night any more, but St. John is still very much led by his creative vision. I was lucky enough to eat there once a couple of years ago and it was one of the best meals of my life. Every dish was something I'd never tried before and it was all insane.

    Made me cry seeing Fergus serve Action at 4.30. No words needed, you can see the passion in his gestures and eyes. Remember watching the Bourdain episode when he eats at St John many years ago. Made me sad thinking that Anthony Bourdain is gone and Fergus is this ill. Still cool to see all the young guys pay their respects to a true legend.

      Fergus Henderson is one of those nigh on legendary figures in the kitchen (think Escoffier, Robuchon, Keller etc.) and St.John’s is a one of the most important restaurants in history.
      For many chefs meeting him there is akin to meeting Michelangelo in the Sistine Chapel.

Incidentally, if you ever want to go to St John but can't get a table, they also opened up a St John in Marlebone which has a slightly different menu and a fantastic young team. If anything the Marlebone branch surpassed the original for me when I went to both on my last trip to London.
