Brian is an award winning Master Chef of Great Britain, former Head Chef at BBC and Executive Chef at Granada TV. He has been involved in almost everything to do with food from cooking privately for celebrities and royalty to overseeing dozens of chefs in busy restaurants.
The exclusive news for this year is that Brian has opened a cookery school in Cheshire, in the old Harthill Village School. Built in the 1800’s, it has magnificent panoramic views across Cheshire and Wales, being just a few minutes away from Bolesworth Castle with other two famous neighbours: Beeston Castle and Peckforton Castle.
The grade II listed building has been carefully renovated to retain its character and keep its place at the heart of the community: a place for learning, meeting artisans and discovering tastes.
Brian Mellor's Cookery School in Cheshire will be a vibrant centre for professionals and public to indulge their passion for food, or indeed those taking their first tentative steps into the kitchen. As well as his own experience, Brian has enlisted the help of his expert colleagues to run cooking classes – so expect an enthusiastic influx of chocolatiers, artisan bakers, cheese makers, game keepers and the like for hands on sessions and demonstrations! Not to mention the link with nationally acclaimed nutritionists and dieticians.
It’s new year and we hope that you all enjoyed the festive season. We wish you all a happy and successful 2012.
Here at the school we’ve hit the ground running in January with knife skills and game courses plus a hugely enjoyable dine ‘n’ dem at the weekend. Our dine ‘n’ dems are intimate monthly affairs limited to just 20 people great for groups of friends to have a different eating experience.
As the word spreads, courses are starting to fill up quickly as folk build up their kitchen skills and tackle new techniques – it’s brilliant to see the kitchen buzzing with people. Next week we welcome a group of Chefs from all over the country as they indulge in 3 days of game discovery & cookery with Brian.
So whether you want to stick with comfort food a while longer such as our Classic British Puddings, Valentine's Day Dinner or learn about something a little lighter to help with those resolutions we have a flurry of courses to get you more confident in the kitchen and show you tricks only professionals know.
Browse our Shop to find something that will tantalize your taste buds in 2012.
Cooking at home and eating healthy should bring the senses alive!
