Isaac Crew is a famous British model who became a chef later in life. Before turning his attention to cooking, he was a model for Hermes, Valentino, Zara, Lee, and Moschino, among others. He enrolled in the culinary program at Thanet College and subsequently joined Gordon Ramsay’s group to train under celebrity chef Gordon Ramsey. Over the years, he worked in various restaurants under various chefs to hone his abilities. His blog and subsequent YouTube channel, ‘The Dirty Dishes,’ which focused on affordable and simple recipes for Generations Y and Z, attracted a large fan base. In addition to being a chef, he worked as a model and appeared in prominent issues of GQ, ELLE Man, and Dazed. He was the 2018 Grooming Awards juror for GQ. His book ‘The Dirty Dishes’ will be published in 2019. He has created recipes for young chefs that emphasize comfort foods. Currently, Independent Talent Group and Next Management represent him. He is also prominent on social media, with over 324k Instagram followers.

Isaac’s A Profession

Since Isaac Carew’s father was also a chef, Isaac was frequently asked to perform odd tasks and work in the restaurants’ kitchens. This sparked an interest in cookery in him. His father and godfather both operated their own kitchens as chefs. This provided him with ample opportunities to investigate the world of cuisine. Home Economics was the only subject Carew was interested in as a child. He was also diagnosed with dyslexia, which prevented him from excelling academically. Thus, he chose to concentrate on cookery.

He studied culinary arts at Thanet College before beginning employment at a Kentish Town pub. In his late teens, he decided to join the Gordon Ramsay Group and hasn’t looked back since. He was trained by the Michelin-starred chef Angela Hartnett at The Connaught in Mayfair. He views her as his mentor and credits this period of his life for his success. Under Hartnett, he worked several 18-hour stretches and mastered the discipline. He admitted that he learned more from Angela in two weeks than he did in two years of culinary education.

After being scouted outside Selfridges, he decided to become a model to supplement his income. He went on to become one of the most prominent models on the circuit and appeared in campaigns for Valentino, Moschino, Issey Miyake, and Hermes, among others. He collaborated with renowned photographers Ranking and Nick Knight, who shot him in various campaigns around the globe.

His Reiss and Swatch campaigns increased his popularity. Isaac continues to experiment in both modeling and cooking. He is represented by numerous agencies across the globe, with the esteemed Next Management serving as his primary agency in the United Kingdom. In 2016, he created the ‘The Dirty Dishes’ blog (and subsequently a YouTube channel) after realizing there was a lack of recipes that simply focused on comfort food for millennials without catering to fads and other market trends.

His video tutorials demonstrated Carew preparing foods he enjoyed as a child. In 2017, he was invited to appear on the Channel 4 series ‘Tried and Tested: The Ultimate Shopping List with Michel Roux Jr. due to its immense popularity. He was Michel Roux Jr.’s right-hand man, and the two of them traveled throughout Britain to compile a definitive guide to the finest food and drink options.

Bluebird Publishers are scheduled to release his book ‘The Dirty Dishes’ in early 2019. The book contains 100 easy-to-prepare recipes. His long-term objective is to own his Soho restaurant. He desires to create an intimate environment where people are drawn in by the pure comfort of the food he prepares.
