Mark Hix

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mark Hix is an English chef. He was previously chef director of Caprice Holdings, where he oversaw all the restaurants and events in the Caprice Group, including The Ivy.

He competed in the 2007 series of Great British Menu, winning the south-west England heat and beating the reigning champion, Michael Caines. In doing so, he got two of his courses into the public vote. The main course was a crayfish and rabbit stargazy pie and, for dessert, a perry jelly with summer fruits with an elderflower ice-cream. Both courses went through to the winning banquet in Paris.

In 2008 Hix opened his own restuarant, Hix Oyster and Chop House, in the Farringdon area of London. He also writes a regular column on food for The Independent newspaper.
