Adam Harper: Roux Scholarship Regional Finalist
Congratulations to our Head Chef Adam Harper for making it to the regional
finals of the Roux Scholarship!
The Roux Scholarship is a premier competition for UK chefs aged from 22 to 30 years, and ranks among the most prestigious in the world. The competition is based on technical skill, a strong palate and deep appreciation and understanding of the history of classical cooking. The winner will go on a unique “stage” to any of the 3 star Michelin restaurants in the world
This year the finalists challenge was to create a recipe to serve four people using one whole fresh Pollock and 600g live whole cockles accompanied by two garnishes (one of which had to include button mushrooms) and a sauce to accompany the dish. Competitors have two and a half hours to cook their dish, along with a dessert from a mystery box of ingredients provided on the day.
The six finalists will go through to the national final in London on 4 April. Adam is the first reserve chef, placed 7th out of the 18 finalists who competed at the regional finals
