Frances Atkins — Crema Worktops

When Michelin-starred chef Frances Atkins began designing her new development kitchen at The Yorke Arms, she needed a worktop that was both elegant and practical one that could stand up to the demands of a professional cooking space while complementing her refined sense of style.

The installation by Mayfair Worktops was smooth and efficient, with Frances describing the process as clean, well organised, and stress-free. The new worktops have completely transformed the space, giving it a warm yet professional finish that perfectly suits her culinary environment.
