Nellsar recently ran an internal competition across its 13 Homes to celebrate and showcase the amazing food our talented Chefs and Kitchen Teams create for our residents every day. We are delighted to say that our Chef Katie Scoones and Head Chef Lynn Clemons at Woodstock Residential Care Home were winners!
Mealtimes are a valued and inclusive experience for all our residents and we take special pride in the food we serve and the dining experience we provide every day.
Judged by international Celebrity Chef Sid Shanti, the competition was divided into the presentation of food in three categories:
- Puréed Moulded Food Category
- Puréed Piped Food Category
- Regular Food Category
Chef Katie and Head Chef Lynn won in the Regular Food category for their delicious hot dog, burger and chips, and barbecue chicken. They shared the award with Head Chef Cosmin Cristea for his chicken and vegetable skewers and Chef Assistant Paul Fazecas for his steak and vegetables, both at Princess Christian Care Home.
Sid’s comments; “It was difficult for me to choose just one winner for this category because I felt all three were equal contenders. I could see the time and effort Cosmin, Paul, Katie with Lynn had all put into their plates and therefore, I would like to award a ‘joint first place win’ to three separate entrants. Well done everyone – you should all be extremely proud of yourselves.”
Congratulations to them all for their amazing plates of food! They will both receive a fabulous prize for their amazing efforts;
- A winner’s certificate
- A glass winner’s trophy
- A copy of Sid’s cook book – Glorious Ibiza Food (& Music!)
- An engraved 8-inch Dalstrong Chef’s knife, Shogun series
- Prize-giving presentation and cooking demo with Sid Shanti on Monday 1 November
