There’s a great mix in our top ten, with a breadth of both established talent inspiring and teaching the next generation of chefs; The George of Stamford’s Paul Reseigh, as well as up and coming chefs like the Brownlow Arms’s Ruaraidh Bealby who has been Head Chef at the venue for less than six months.
