A defining point in the career of Jason Atherton was in 1998, working at the legendary elBulli restaurant in Spain. He became the first British chef to complete a work placement there. In 2005 he joined up with Gordon Ramsay to head up Maze in Mayfair, which won a Mechelin star. In 2010 Jason embarked on a life-long dream of opening his own London restaurants and in April 2011, Pollen Street Social, also in Mayfair, was born. It has already been awarded a Michelin star.
