Mark McCabe with Dan Cox

Welcome to Grilled by The Staff Canteen, this is season 6 and our next four episodes will be hosted by Mark McCabe, Head Chef at Henrock by Simon Rogan and previous Chef Owner of The Ethicurean.

In this episode of Grilled, Mark talks to Dan Cox, Chef Owner of Crocadon Farm.

Crocadon Restaurant opened in February 2023, and is located in St Mellion, South East Cornwall. The restaurant is based on a 120-acre organic farm and housed within a historic barn the result of years of hard work for Dan and his team.

Dishes on the Crocadon menu change regularly, presenting Dan Cox’s reactive approach to cooking inspired by what is harvested from the farm that week. Ensuring each plate of food is as rooted in nature as it can be, his aesthetically pared-back yet technically complex cooking style draws on elements of his classical training, whilst still reflecting the humble and rugged facade of Crocadon’s Cornish backyard.

In this episode, Mark and Dan discuss the innovative ways chefs and restaurant owners can minimise waste, source ingredients from farm-to-table, and create menus that not only deliver the best flavours, but also respect the planet.
