How lucky am I?!! Last week I had the good fortune to be at the Master Chefs of Great Britain inaugural Scottish Sustainable Lunch , where the level of expertise, innovation and presentation was outstanding. Last night I had the privilege to dine at the recently opened Lalique Restaurant in the Glenturret Distillery near Crieff. I have already used superlatives to describe the MCGB lunch - which ones do I have left to comment on the dinner. The level of innovation, food and flavour combinations was outstanding! I am only posting photos of two dishes as my photography did not do justice to the presentation, much better that you enjoy the whole experience when you book!! This is truly a fabulous experience - well done to the whole team and don't forget to visit the Lalique shop - simply stunning!!

The heather on the hills is in full bloom, and it looks stunning but to me it heralds the start of a change in the season. As a chef my thoughts turn to game, firstly grouse - delicious served with chanterelles in cream and sherry. Then in September partridge followed by pheasant and duck. All game requires careful preparation and cooking but it is truly delicious and worth the effort.

An amazing afternoon last Tuesday for the inaugural sustainable Scottish Master Chefs of Great Britain lunch. The food was truly inspirational, looked stunning and the flavours just incredible. So lucky to be part of such an experience

What to do with a glut of homegrown broad beans - nothing better than a broad bean and parmesan risotto with Scottish caught hake. Simple but totally delicious! .little200

These are so special!

Loved finding these on my hill walk yesterday - nothing more special than foraged food for a chef! Scottish blaeberries or the wortleberry if you read Roald Dahl stories! Always a treat to find and yes, these didn't make it to the bottom of the hill - but I can assure you they were delicious!

Our diners this weekend are LOVING our arancini starter... The smell is JUST DIVINE, I wish you could smell it through this video. If you missed out on this menu, do not panic, we have another couple coming up soon. The 31st of May Bank Holiday weekend menu is filled with equally delicious flavours. In season asparagus to start followed by BBQ pork belly and langostine skewers with piri piri chicken wings, baby gem salad and crushed new potatoes; finished off with white chocolate mousse and poached rhubarb. Following that, we have National Bubbly weekend on 5th and 6th June and this one is a REAL treat! A starter of fresh crab and Scottish smoked salmon with an Asian salad, followed by dressed Scottish lobster, new potatoes with truffle mayonnaise, asparagus with lemon and olive oil dressing, avocado and garden salad and finally strawberries and champagne jelly. Delicious! If you'd like to have your own delivery of one of these sumptuous menus, tap on the link in our profile and place your order on our website. Which one of these menus excites you the most?!
