Hannah completed her apprenticeship in Berlin in Restaurant VAU.

After finishing up as part of the last group of interns in NOMA before its temporary closure Hannah helped open Restaurant Barr in Copenhagen where NOMA once stood followed by working with the Kadeau family for 1 year.

More recent Berlin experience included Palsta until the closure during pandemic followed by Brasserie Lamazere.

In Palsta Hannah met Maya (Danish) in the kitchen who was our partner for the very first FEED THE PONY pop up in Dublin in 2019 showcasing and named after a wine from Daniel and Bianca Schmitt - RHEINHESSEN.

Maya would continue to steer our direction with Nordic inspired cooking and a modern interpretation of German dishes through FEED THE PONY at home - a takeaway service during pandemic.

After 10 years in London working in many differing levels of Cuisine including Gordon Ramsay, Marcus Wareing & Jason Atherton restaurants, followed by Japanese concept Sumosan (where Martin would later become Roman Abramovich's waiter catering at Chelsea Football Club)

Martin was General Manager of Wild Honey in Mayfair retaining their 1* Michelin status and featuring on the cover of the London guide followed by Restaurant Manager of Ormer by Shaun Rankin 1* on the Bailiwick of Jersey. 

Working in Restaurant BARR in Copenhagen was where Martin and Hannah met leading to joining Kadeau family as sommelier in newly opened Roxie under chef Anika Madsen (Currently Alchemist CPH)

Martin moved back to Ireland for a new project whilst Hannah moved to Berlin in 2019.

Working in AIMSIR - under Jordan Bailey the team was awarded 2 * Michelin after only 4 months open.

Based in Celbridge outside Dublin it was here the decision to do the first FEED THE PONY pop up.

 In February 2020 Martin moved to Berlin and after many pop ups and take away during Pandemic (whilst also building a temporary kitchen in TREAT Neukölln) Hannah and Martin took over the former Cafe Le Renard where FEED THE PONY is currently based full time.
