Chester catering duo cook up new venture with start up loan

A CHESTER chef has teamed up with a close friend to launch a growing independent catering venture with the help of a £20,000 start up loan.

Connor Drew and Amy Freeman founded Little Padron after meeting while working in production catering.

With a combined 20 years of experience in hospitality, the pair decided to strike out on their own.

Connor, who has worked as a chef for more than a decade, including as a sous chef at Delia Smith’s restaurant at Norwich City Football Club, said the move was about taking ownership of his future.
