When Nick Hillier contacted us a few months ago wanting to do a photo series on London-based sous chefs, we jumped at it. Head chefs, understandably, get the spotlight and praise when a restaurant does well. But chat to any of them and they’ll invariably praise their team as invaluable to that success. 

And so to four rising stars of London’s food scene, all doing brilliant things in their own right. We’ve kept info about them to a minimum, to allow Nick’s photography, and the chefs, to shine.

This is part 3 of a 4-part series, which also features Thomas Ward of Popham’s, Aika Levins of The Barbary and The Barbary Next Door and Joseph Carvell of Smokestak.

Marios Lathourakis is a chef de partie at The Waterhouse Project. He sees gastronomy as a way to express himself and create unique experiences.

Nick Hillier is a Canadian portrait and documentary photographer living in London. He loves capturing real and intimate moments with his subjects and revealing a side to people, places and things that we don't often see.
