In preparation for the Relish North West book launch next week we sat down with head chef Carl Noller to talk about his recipes, upcoming cookery classes and special four course evening dinner. So Carl, how does it feel to have your recipes featured in the new Relish publication? I was really excited and honoured to find out that my recipes had been selected for the North West publication and it was a nice surprise to see that my desert – the chocolate and almond savarin with orange curd and raspberries had also made it onto the front cover. Can you tell us about your other recipes from the book? I have three recipes in in there which include the torbay sole smoked with broccoli puree and mornay bon bons and the main dish – raised pork neck with caramelized apple, roast potatoes, red and green cabbage and crumbled scratchings. Where possible our food is spruced locally. Are you excited about the Relish North West book launch? I’m really looking forward to next weeks events. After the official Relish launch in Chester we have two of our own events, a special four course meal on Friday 19th September with recipes from the book and a cookery class on Saturday 20th September – which are always really fun – for those who want to learn how to make my dishes. What more can you tell us about the upcoming cookery class? They are really fun and interactive whist still being simple and easy to follow. For the Relish cookery class I will be teaching guest how to cook my recipes from the book so that they...

An Evening with Ralph Hochar of Chateau Musar Without question the history of Chateau Musar is unique. Gaston Hochar returned from Bordeaux highly influenced by Chateau Langoa-Barton and decided to open his own vineyard back in 1930. It continued to produce first class wines in the western Bekaa Valley, Lebanon, in spite of the fifteen year civil war. Decanter awarded their very first ‘Man of the Year’ to Serge Hochar in 1984, so highly were his wines prized. Our evening is hosted by Ralph Hochar, third generation of a very special family. Join us to hear more about Chateau Musar, where you will taste not only the legendary reds, but his ‘jeune rouge’ and his lesser known whites.

Treat Dad on Sunday, June 15th with a special 3 course menu for just £19.95 per person. I have two children and it sometimes feel like a second-class citizen. Not all the time, but when it comes to Mother’s Day and Father’s Day, I’m definitely not in the first class compartment. I know I’m not alone. I can tell by my reservations that for Mother’s Day, the phone consistently rings weeks before the event. Father’s Day, much more of a mad rush the week before. A second-class thought. Do we get such a raw deal? Or is it just me? No, it can’t be… Put it in your diary early and treat your dad this year. It’s the 15th of June. We’ll be open in the Brasserie from 12pm until 6pm. -Paul Click here to book online now or call 01772 806543 Menu Celeriac soup, kinderton ash goats cheese (v) Heathcotes blackpudding fritters, braised lettuce in mustard, poached egg Summer truffled artichoke & new potato salad (v) Dill, salt and whisky cured salmon, radish, chicory and lemon Mini platter – Cauliflower fritters, curry mayonnaise sprats in a glass and crostini chicken liver pate *** Roast sirloin of 42 day aged beef, Yorkshire pudding, chive mash, dauphinoise potatoes, fine beans Lamb mint “rag pudding” smoked creamed potato, steamed broccoli Roast Goosnargh chicken, onion puree, wild mushrooms, chicken skin crackling , sauté potatoes, spring cabbage Asparagus, champ potatoes, duck egg, vine tomatoes, chervil sauce Cod nuggets, chips, mushy peas and tartar sauce *** Heathcotes bread & butter pudding Summer pudding, thick vanilla cream Strawberries and cream, scone crumb, meringues Chocolate pots with honeycomb...
