“The wedding food was a delectable fusion of flavors, leaving guests delighted and satisfied.”
Forever foraging ideas
Scotland has one heck of a seasonal larder. Honest, seasonal, local ingredients that pack punch. We’re adventurous when it comes to showcasing the best produce from our land and seas and we do this with innovation and genuine passion.
Our chefs are forever on the hunt for new techniques and local producers offering alternative and sustainable ideas. So whether you’re conference catering for 600+, or out to impress a significant few – sidestep the expected in favour of something guaranteed to ignite the senses.
HOW OUR KITCHEN WORKS
- Our chefs plan menus around seasonal sustainable local ingredients
- All our menus support British farms, fishermen, dairies, cheesemakers, butchers and bakers
- Menus developed with green and organic producers in mind
- Dishes are prepared in our production kitchen at Eskmills Venue
- Ensure food waste is kept to an absolute minimum using any waste product creatively
