‘Feast’ is the new restaurant run by English restaurateurs Richard Knight and James Silk, alongside James' wife Meagan. ‘Feast’ is about bringing a traditional and relaxed European approach to dining to Downtown Houston. We offer simple, honest, rustic cuisine in a relaxed, homely environment. Our emphasis is on quality, local, seasonal ingredients prepared with passion and imagination.
Our desire is to summon the spirit of a family meal shared around the kitchen table of an old-fashioned European family farm...
Here we are.
And here is our restaurant....
A little bit about us...
Richard and James grew up together on the south coast of England and have been eating, drinking and cooking together for their entire lives. Their work together has repeatedly, and rightly, been described as a 'labor of love' and it is their unique style of hearty, passionate, European-style eating that they now bring into downtown Houston.
Richard has more than 20 years experience as a chef. Whilst in London he worked in, amongst others, Petrus, Green’s and Richard Corrigan’s Lindsay House, all Michelin starred, high profile, establishments, before moving on to run his own, very successful, restaurant in the world-famous artist community at St. Ives in Cornwall.
He has lived in the US for 11 years, first in California, working as a private chef and caterer in Laguna Hills, before moving to Texas in 1998. Prior to opening ‘Taverna’ he was the Executive Head Chef for ‘Bon Appetit’ at the Chevron Texaco Building in downtown Houston whilst working in recent times with James as ‘The Feast Company’ providing upscale European Catering for in home events.
James has also worked in all aspects of the restaurant business for two decades. Amongst much other experience in London, he ran Charles Fontaine’s renowned Quality Chop House and Sam and Sam Clark’s award winning Moro restaurant.
Most tellingly he worked extensively with Fergus Henderson at St. John, in central London’s Clerkenwell district, which was recently voted the tenth best restaurant in the world by Restaurant Magazine and, famously, is Anthony Bourdain’s ‘favorite restaurant in the world’. Here, following in his family’s tradition, he also trained as a butcher and a chef.
At ‘Feast’ Richard and James again are working alonside James’ wife Meagan, who brings her extensive experience in the world of catering and her own passion for food and drink. She manages the restaurant and is fundamental to creating the relaxed, warm, family style of service.
