Video: L’Enclume Simon Rogan's Three Michelin Star Restaurant

Chef Simon Rogan opened his flagship restaurant L’Enclume in 2002. It’s located in the small medieval town of Cartmel in the Lake District in the northwest of the UK. The name L’Enclume is French and means the anvil, stemming from the fact that the restaurant is housed in a former blacksmith workshop. The restaurant received its first star in 2005, its second in 2013, and its third this year. 2022 was the year Rogan could celebrate L’Enclume’s 20th anniversary and three Michelin stars at the same time. Before our lunch, we started at L’Enclume’s farm – Our Farm. Rogan was one of the first chefs to champion the farm-to-table movement in the UK. This is a must-visit restaurant in the UK. L’Enclume was a meal highlight of our life!
