🔫Tara Guinness🔫 @tara_cookery 👩🏽‍🍳🥚🧀🥛🍶 Somewhat surprisingly, Cooking was a discovery that Tara didn’t even make until University. Having graduated, and rebelling against her family of anti-cooks, Tara enrolled at Leiths School of Food and Wine where she gained the Full Year Diploma. With traditional French culinary training under her belt, she moved to India and found herself in the remote hotel kitchens of Rajasthan, teaching everything from Western cooking to catering management. It was here where her love of teaching was born. On her return from India she worked for various catering companies and restaurants including ‘Kricket’ and ‘Peardrop London’. She then moved on to the restaurant ‘Carousel’, where she is faced with the challenge of learning a new cuisine every week as a result of the rotating roster of Head Chefs. One week it might be Japan, the next it will be Italy, and then perhaps Argentina! After gaining two years of invaluable experience, she went part time at ‘Carousel’ to start ‘Tara Cookery’. ‘Tara Cookery’ provides private cooking lessons in your own home. She teaches a huge range of dishes for all levels, and has recently added a new string to her bow, Cheesemaking. This has always been a passion of hers, and after realising that there wasn’t anywhere for her to learn the art of cheesemaking, she taught herself on YouTube and has now become a seasoned pro, beginning to teach both in classes and at events across London. If you want to learn how to make mozzarella, ricotta and butter from scratch, book into one of her classes! Please visit TARACOOKERY.COM for more information about private cooking lessons. Vouchers are available for the perfect Christmas present! For the Cheese Making Class in Notting Hill please go to the fantastic new food and drink skills website www.TEMPFU.COM.

🔫GEORGIE HILTON🔫 @georginahilton Georgie started taking Auctions at Christie’s after a vigorous training program in January 2017. Since then she has taken sales for almost every department from Old Master Paintings 🖼to Contemporary Art 💡as well Handbags👜👛, Furniture 🛏and Jewellery💎. Every sale she takes is very different but she also has the same approach – to give it as much energy as she possibly can, engage with every bidder and make sure that she is passionate about every lot she sells💥 Georgie is also a Charity Auctioneer. She has had some amazing evenings as the auctioneer for environmental fundraisers to sporting charities and most successfully for charities supporting women around the world where a female auctioneer tends to go down very well. She loves getting to know the pioneers of these projects and putting her energy into auctioneering for such brilliant causes. Everyone is welcome to view and attend auctions at Christie’s and they can be really worth a visit, especially during Frieze week in London when they have the Contemporary Art sales – you can watch artists like Jenny Saville, Jeff Koons & Lucian Freud go under the hammer for record breaking prices at all the auction houses around London.

🔫LOUISA WENTWORTH-STANLEY🔫 🇮🇳 @tamra_uk Louisa started Tamra whilst living in New Delhi. It was whilst out there that copper caught her eye! Drawn firstly to the beauty of these copper vessels that can be found in most Indian households, she was later enlightened to the numerous health benefits hailed by Ayurvedic doctors of drinking Tamba Pani (Copper Water). Keen to share these beauties with homes worldwide, Louisa set about developing her own range of copperwares with coppersmiths based in New Delhi. The range includes water bottles, tumblers, vases and jugs. These champion the rich tradition of copper craftsmanship within India with many of the products being meticulously beaten by hand. Tamra products are free of plastic and fully reusable, as is the packaging, which is made by a foundation that works to help empower women in impoverished parts of New Delhi. This makes them the perfect alternative to single use plastic. Head to www.tamrauk.com to buy online and find it more! -- www.tamrauk.com Follow 👉🏼 @tamra_uk
