At Med.kitchen we specialise in private dining and promise to deliver an unforgettable and unique gastronomic experience. We eliminate the stress of planning and preparation leading up to your event, while covering the cooking and serving on the day. You’re then able to sit back and relax in your own home environment to enjoy the evening. We're happy to serve the food in any type of setting that best meets your needs. We will accommodate any dietary restrictions, food allergies, cultural or spiritual requirements. Each event is tailored to you and your guests culinary preferences. We cook, teach, entertain and aim to leave your kitchen looking cleaner than we found it!
Shaun Smith-Roberts has over 30 years of experience in the culinary arts, including serving as Head Chef for award-winning restaurants and working on iconic television productions. He began his career with an apprenticeship in the Royal Air Force. He gained valuable experience and knowledge of various food cultures while serving the British Royal Family and foreign dignitaries, including Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, HRH Princess Diana, HRH Prince Charles and HRH King Hussein of Jordan, as well as many others.
As a young member of the Queens Colour Squadron, he developed a lifelong passion for gastronomy through constant travel and exposure to new food cultures. After completing his military service, he worked as Sous Chef at the renowned Ménage à Trois in Knightsbridge, London, and later as Head Chef at a Michelin-starred restaurant in London, solidifying his commitment to designing eclectic menus and recognising his culinary identity.
Working with one of his culinary idols, Ian MacAndrew, Shaun expanded into culinary media and content creation, assisting Ian on his iconic book "A Feast of Fish 2" and working with TV icon Keith Floyd. Floyd entrusted Shaun with assisting him on his multiple TV series, leading Shaun into a career and education in television production. Shaun's involvement with the popular TV series and bestselling book "Floyd around the Med", amongst others, led him to realise his Maltese heritage was his way forward, resulting in a move to the Maltese Archipelago.
This wealth of experience in fine dining and culinary media led Shaun to the beautiful island of Gozo and eventually to be able to offer the services of Med.kitchen
