About HiStory Hospitality
The project is led by Tom Sellers, one of the UK’s most respected chefs. Originally from Nottingham, Tom opened his first restaurant, Restaurant Story, at just 26 years old, earning a Michelin star within five months, followed by a second star in 2021.
Tom trained with some of the world’s most influential chefs, including Tom Aikens in London, Thomas Keller at Per Se in New York, and René Redzepi at Noma in Copenhagen.
The group has since expanded with Story Cellar, a Parisian-inspired rotisserie, and Dovetale at 1 Hotel Mayfair, a produce-led restaurant focused on reimagined European classics.
