Brian Turner is one of Yorkshire and the UK’s most successful and well-known chefs.
In addition to running highly respected restaurants in the UK, he has become a successful television personality, appearing regularly on Ready Steady Cook, This Morning, Saturday Cooks and Saturday Kitchen.
After training at some of the most prestigious hotels and restaurants in Europe, including Simpson’s in the Strand and The Savoy Grill, Brian went to the Beau Rivage Palace in Lausanne, returning to England to work at Claridge’s and then the Capital Hotel where he earned a prized Michelin star.
Brian opened his own restaurant Turner’s, in Walton Street, Knightsbridge, which set new standards for the British chef-owned restaurants – attracting a blend of local and international regulars.
Brian has spent time on the development and manufacture of his own food and drink products, these include his own sandwich line, coffee products and dessert range which retail in several well known supermarket chains. He has also developed his own beer range -Amber Ale which is now sold in over 2000 Mitchell & Butler pubs in the UK. The beerrange was developed locally at Thornbridge Brewery, Bakewell.
Brian’s fascinating story will cover what drove him to open and then sell his own restaurants, the development of his own food line and distribution channels, the development of recipes for Tesco’s, Brian Turner as a brand and the importance of customer service. There will also be the opportunity to ask Brian questions and network with fellow guests over a light buffet and refreshments.
This is a part or the Food & Drink Business Week running 5th -12th May 2010
