On Saturday we hosted our autumn tasting event
We love hosting our tasting events, it's a really great, fun afternoon. We run the day exactly the same as we would run a wedding service. This gives our couples a really good insight into how service would work on their special day. The feedback was incredible for both the food and service 😁😁

And a huge thankyou to Heathland Flowers for providing our vases for the tables. If you are in need of a florist, India is amazing and super lovely to boot

30(ISH) years ago I started my first job, as an apprentice chef. I feel very lucky to have had this guy as my head chef/mentor for the first 3 years of my career. If it wasn't for the solid foundation Keith gave me in those early years I absolutely wouldn't be where I am today.

So many fond memories of our time working together at the Anchor in Cockwood. Keith's love of the adrenaline and buzz of a busy service was infectious as was his passion for cooking great food.

From always making me do EVERYTHING by hand. I remember asking him why I couldn't use the machines like he did. His reply "once you can do it all perfectly by hand, then I'll let you cheat a little"

Having a 7' 160lb marlin brought into the kitchen for us to prep, selling fish so fresh, we were gutting them to order and there were live sand eels inside. Breaking service records at the Anchor with people eating huge shellfish platters all up the sea wall. Winning various accolades including best seafood pub of Great Britain in the Egon Ronay guide. To Keith tipping a whole 2ltr bottle of Lea and Perrin's over himself trying to explain something (because some numpty didn't screw the lid back on properly 🙈🤣)

I could go on for ever. Mary, Maria & Kelly, Keith was a great man and probably never knew the influence he had on my career.
