Fire Stage
Julian Brown
Where:
Fire Stage - Inner Bailey
When:
Chief Fire Starter & Tamer of Flames
After decades in the city, Julian traded boardrooms for burning embers and quickly carved out a reputation as the go-to for all things live fire.
With a deep passion for fermentation, he’s developed a style that fuses seasonal, sustainable English produce with Nordic and Asian preservation techniques—always brought together over flame to create food that’s familiar yet different.
His latest venture, The Cliftonville Dining Room in his hometown of Margate, reimagines Western classics through the lens of fermentation. Think: a shio koji beef burger, beef tartare with miso emulsion, and goat’s burrata paired with a fiery Sichuan mapo sauce.
