Prior to joining 108 Garage, Clarke worked as a development chef at Daniel Clifford's Midsummer House in Cambridge, as head chef at the Typing Room restaurant at the Town Hall hotel in London, and co-founded pop-up restaurant Dead Rabbits.
He also worked as a sous chef at Tom Aikens' restaurant in London, as a senior chef de partie at the Ledbury, at Restaurant Martin Wishart in Edinburgh, and as a chef de partie at Le Gavroche.
Pidgin was opened in 2015 by James Ramsden and Sam Herlihy, who also opened Magpie off Regent Street in 2017. The formerly Michelin-starred Pidgin offers a four-course menu that changes every week.
