The Chef's Chef Returns to the Signature Food Festival
Phil Howard made a triumphant return to the Signature Food Festival in 2025 for his fourth appearance, delighting guests once again with his signature warm hospitality and exquisite French-inspired cuisine. As the co-owner and chef of London's acclaimed Elystan Street, Phil has built a reputation for excellence, previously earning two Michelin stars at The Square and working alongside culinary greats like Marco Pierre White and Simon Hopkinson.
A firm festival favourite, Phil's presence was a highlight of this year's event, offering diners an unforgettable experience of refined yet approachable cooking. With a career that has seen him win titles such as Chef's Chef of the Year, star on shows like MasterChef and The Great British Menu, and author award-winning cookbooks, his return to the festival was nothing short of spectacular.
