Owen grew up in Birmingham, inside Jamaican culture.

Owen Gregory is the son of Jamaican immigrants. He grew up in Birmingham surrounded by the food, music, and warmth of Jamaican culture. The kitchen was always the centre of the house.

He learned to cook from his mother. By the time he was ten years old, he was already standing at the stove beside her, learning how to balance spice, heat, and patience. Cooking Jamaican food has been his love ever since.

After 35 years with British Airways, including leading cabin crews on long-haul routes around the world, Owen brings a lifetime of looking after people to Caribbean Kitchen. Today, that experience comes together with his Jamaican heritage and love of food to create private dining that is as much about warm Caribbean hospitality as it is about what arrives on the plate.

That same cooking now travels to homes and villas across Portugal's Silver Coast. Owen hosts a handful of private dining evenings a month, bringing the food, the hospitality and the culture of Jamaica to your table.
