Lior Shva is an Israeli chef that as strong roots in Western Europe, having also lived in Belgium until the age of 12. Classically trained and with years of experience at some of the best Michelin-starred restaurants in the UK, Lior always strived to learn from the best.
After completing her military service in 2010 and travelling around South East Asia, Lior then returned to Belgium in 2011 to study at the country’s best culinary school in Koksijde.
In 2013, she moved to the UK to work at 2-Michelin-starred Restaurant Sat Bains in Nottingham for two years. Following this, she moved to London for 4 years where she worked at Dinner By Heston Blumenthal and The Ledbury (both of which have 2 Michelin stars) and was the Sous Chef for the opening of Adam Handling Chelsea.
During her days off from restaurant kitchens, Lior started a business taking Israeli tourists on tours of London’s famous food scene in Borough Market and Covent Garden. These tours became a success and strengthened her connection to the London culinary world.
Lior returned to Israel for a couple of months and opened a successful pop-up restaurant overlooking Lake Kinneret. This project showcased her ability to create a full culinary experience wherever she goes.
During the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, Lior became a mother. She worked full-time in the kitchen at Sat Bains right up until her due date and returned shortly after maternity leave, eager to get back behind the stove.
Lior returned to Nottingham to work as a Sous Chef at Sat Bains Restaurant. She continued leading her London food tours on weekends, maintaining her connection to the city’s food scene—up until the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Every dinner is more than a meal. Lior brings guests into her creative world, sharing the inspiration, techniques and personal stories behind each course, culminating in a uniquely immersive fine-dining experience.
Shaped by life in Israel, Belgium and the UK plus years in 2-Michelin-starred kitchens, Lior’s food reflects European precision, Israeli soul and global influences from her travels across Asia.
Lior blends classic Michelin-level training from Europe, mainly the UK, with a deep commitment to seasonal Israeli ingredients. Her menus shift with the seasons, highlighting local produce through refined, and world-class techniques.
Lior is now onto her next challenge and returned to Israel with her family in 2022 to pursue a career in her homeland. She is competing in the televised chef competition “Game of Chefs” and plans to open a unique fine-dining experience in the North of the country in early 2023.
