Brown’s Hotel welcomes food influencer Jesse Jenkins
Brown’s Hotel, a Rocco Forte Hotel, welcomes Los Angeles-born photographer, author and food influencer Jesse Jenkins to The Donovan Bar for an exclusive three-month culinary residency.
Running from early November, the collaboration introduces Jenkins’ signature “fresh, fast and filthy” style to Mayfair, with a curated menu of contemporary American small plates designed to pair with the bar’s cocktail list.
Jenkins is best known for his vegetable-forward recipe videos, which regularly reach over two million views on Instagram. He shares his food stories under the moniker ADIP – Another Day in Paradise – bringing high-impact visuals and accessible cooking to a global audience.
Fusing West Coast flavours with street food influences, his dishes are inspired by Mexican and Californian cuisine, and include Al Pastor and fish tacos, prawn toast tostada and zesty pineapple tacos. A highlight of the residency, Jenkins’ tuna ceviche with tostadas, will be served exclusively at Brown’s — brought to life for the first time in a restaurant setting.
“As an Anglophile, the opportunity to collaborate with Brown’s Hotel in Mayfair was incredibly exciting,” says Jesse. “There’s something special about the contrast – bringing a playful, Americana-inspired menu into the timeless elegance of The Donovan Bar creates a kind of culinary juxtaposition I really love.”
