Eszter Kosztolanczi

Head Chef

Hello! I’m Eszter and I’m the Head Chef here at Buckingham Lodge. I grew up in a very small village in Hungary, where from a young age I learned everything about food—starting from the garden to the plate. We grew our own vegetables, raised animals, and prepared food to store for the winter. That way of life taught me the value of hard work, fresh ingredients, and cooking with care. I had my first cooking job when I was just 13, and now—20 years later—I still love what I do. During the Covid lockdown, I worked as a private chef for a hotel owner and CEO’s elderly family member. Spending so much time with her inspired me to follow my heart and work in a care home setting. Since joining Buckingham Lodge, I’ve been named Chef of the Year, and I’ve won two cake competitions. When I’m not in the kitchen, I enjoy keeping active with weight training and home workouts—and I always make time to unwind with my partner and our beloved cats.
