Adam Handling MBE is the Michelin-starred Chef Owner of the Adam Handling Collection, operating venues across the UK, and is fast becoming one of the best-known chefs in the country. Adam is passionate about British food, sustainability, and fighting food waste.

His Cornish gastropub, The Tartan Fox, was added to the Michelin Guide just five months after opening, and in 2025, Adam unveiled Ugly Butterfly 2.0, relocating his acclaimed Cornish restaurant to a stunning new home at The Headland in Newquay – a bold evolution of the original, with a flexible, produce-led menu that reflects his deep connection to the region. Also in 2025, Adam became the first British Michelin-starred chef to open a luxury chocolate shop, just around the corner from Frog in Covent Garden.

Adam has made numerous global television appearances including Saturday Kitchen Live, The One Show, and as a judge on Top Chef, MasterChef, and MasterChef: The Professionals.
