Welcome to La Perle

DISCOVER OUR STORY

Sam and the team are pleased to welcome you to La Perle!

You may remember Chef Sam from when he represented Milford-on-Sea in the TV series Professional Master Chef a few years ago. He has recently returned to the village and is now the proud owner of his first restaurant, La Perle.

As a young chef, Sam trained under Raymond Blanc, who continues to follow Sam’s career closely and has been a positive influence on him over the years. It was during his time spent with Monsieur Blanc that Sam developed his passion for seasonal dishes made from locally sourced produce.

The result can be seen in the menus, where everything is made from scratch in the restaurant, from the bread and butter to the ice creams and sorbets. The New Forest is a key source of many of Sam’s ingredients with over 90% of his produce sourced from sustainable suppliers in Hampshire and Dorset.

Culinary choices for evenings

Culinary choices have a quiet but powerful influence on how an evening unfolds. What you decide to eat, how you prepare it, and the atmosphere you create around food can turn an ordinary night into something memorable. A standout evening is rarely about extravagance alone. It is about intention, balance, and understanding how flavours, textures, […]

A new flavour pairing

A great night often begins with a small surprise, and in food and drink that surprise is increasingly found in flavour pairing. Modern hosts, chefs, and bartenders are no longer satisfied with predictable combinations. They look for contrasts that spark conversation and keep guests engaged long after the first sip or bite. Sweet meeting savoury, […]

Warm french touch nights

Modern organisations often talk about automation as if it were a silver bullet, yet the real value only emerges when it is implemented with purpose, clarity, and careful alignment to operational goals. When done well, automation becomes the quiet force that frees teams from routine tasks and unlocks creative capacity. This shift in focus allows […]
