Kate
The Whole Bowl | Nourishing Cuisine | MasterChef 2007
Kate is a North London native who has been cooking since age 6. A MasterChef 2007 contestant where John Torode praised her restaurant-quality food, she now creates delicious, nourishing meals through The Whole Bowl.
Kate's Story
Kate is a North Londoner born and bred, with an appetite for cooking since she was just 6 years old. Her grandma taught her the basics - cooking from scratch using lots of fresh ingredients. That foundation has shaped everything she creates today.
"I love big flavours and traditional methods of cookery. Food made with love tastes so much better - it's that simple."
After many years working in hospitality, Kate set up a catering company in 2005, taking a break when her children were young. In 2007, she competed on MasterChef, where John Torode said she was cooking restaurant-quality food.
The Whole Bowl started simmering away in 2017 from Kate's little London kitchen. The aim was (and still is) to create super tasty, high quality meals, soups, sauces and salads - all served in sustainable packaging. Kate's specialty is nutritious, wholesome dishes that don't compromise on flavour.
