Company description
Gwyn Rees-Sheppard began his career at Leith's School of Food and Wine and worked for some years in commercial restaurants in London before spending several years in Italy. On his return, 8 years ago, he moved into restaurant management but always with the hope that someday he could open a place of his own. Perhaps, surprisingly, his Italian experience served only to increase his love of British food and, while he enjoyed, and still enjoys, Italian cooking, what struck him most was the dedication of the Italians to their local cuisine and this he intends to emulate at Wimsey's.
