“Food has always been a passion since my school days, and having my own business was always the plan. I worked in catering straight from school, and four years ago I opened the Parade Tearooms, which has gone from strength to strength. I have since opened another Parade Tearooms in Gunwharf, which has been running now for five months. Both are open seven days a week. Running the business is a very personal thing to me, and making people smile is the aim. My head chef Dave Terrill has been with me from day one, so he understands what standards are required, which makes my job easier. “ - Mark Hogan www.paradetearooms.co.uk Western Parade
