King's Head Head Chef Selected for Prestige Training
Wed 6th July 2016
James Atkinson at The King’s Head has just experienced a training course like no other.
He was selected from the 32 Revere Pub Company Head Chefs to work with Michelin starred Chef Paul Ainsworth of Paul Ainsworth at No 6 in Padstow, Cornwall, and his Head Chef at Rojano’s in the Square, Paul Doddy!
James spent one day working with Paul Doddy at Rojano’s in the Square looking at presentation and service, particularly of the delicious pub fare which The King’s Head is so good at - pastas, pizzas and burgers.
On day 2, James was in the company of Paul Ainsworth himself, learning to cook and present three of the new dishes which Paul has created which will be featured on the King’s Head and other Revere Pub Company hotels’ autumn menu when it is rolled out in August.
The new dishes are Wild Mushroom Tagiatelle with Truffle Oil; Chicken Breast cooked with Potatoes and Carrots in Beer Yeast Butter and Pavlova to share with Great Summer Fruits.
James said: “This has been a great experience! It was really hard work, but a thoroughly enjoyable experience working with two of the country’s top chefs!
