Local hero and Michelin Star chef Tom Shepherd is set to turn on the Christmas lights and cook up a storm at Redrow’s Lichfield development.
On Saturday 30th November, from 2.30pm-4.30pm, Redrow Midlands will be joined by Lichfield’s very own Michelin Star chef Tom Shepherd to turn on the Christmas lights at the housebuilder’s latest development in the region, Curborough Lakes.
Tom Shepherd, owner of Upstairs by Tom Shepherd, opened his restaurant on Bore Street in 2021 and was awarded a Michelin Star within four months, representing the first Michelin star in Staffordshire. In 2023, Tom represented the Central Region on the BBC’s Great British Menu. He went on to win the main course round and cooked at the Banquet where he served his infamous take on Desperate Dan’s Cow Pie.
