About Us
Chef’s Pencil started ten years ago as a place where professional chefs shared their favorite recipes. The website was launched by Sydney-based Chef Paul Hegeman and features content for all levels of cooks and foodies.
What sets apart Chef’s Pencil from your average foodie blog is the quality of the content. We believe that quantity does not necessarily equate to quality. You will not find 300 recipes for mashed potatoes; you will find one or a couple recipes that are sourced from the world’s best Chefs. You can take these recipes through your culinary lifetime.
Our Chefs also share numerous articles and culinary techniques, which you can find under our How To section.
Industry Reports
In addition to recipes and cooking tips, we have started to report on industry trends and news. Our studies have earned world-wide recognition and have been covered in top publications such as the Guardian, the Independent, the Sydney Morning Herald, Pacific Business News, Eater and Euronews.
