At &SONS, travel is essential to us. It allows us to remove ourselves from the daily grind and reconnect with family and friends. Travel is the best source of inspiration as we experience different cultures and see the world through a new lens. Our Founder Phil James has a real fondness for New York, so earlier this month, he packed up his camera kit and took the family away for a well-deserved break.

James Strawbridge is a chef and food photographer based in Cornwall. He produces cookbooks for a living, develops recipes and can be found foraging for wild food with his family. We collaborated with James back in the summer and he created a delicious Shakshuka recipe which was hugely popular with our pioneers. After seeing the response from everyone, we wanted to learn more about the way he lives and how he develops his own style, so we met up again to break some bread.
