Glenfiddich Spirit of Scotland food Award 2009

I was extremely surprised an honoured to have been awarded the Glenfiddich Spirit of Scotland Food Award last night. A massive thank you to all of you who kindly nominated me. I'm completely bowled over with the support which has been shown.
 
It really is a true honour to have been given this accolade. However, it is certainly not about one person - I have a great team working with me at Ardeonaig to whom I am forever grateful.   

My respect for the farmers, crofters and fishermen continues to grow, along with our fantastic local suppliers who are often the invisible food heroes of Scotland.

These are the people who produce the goods that continue to truly inspire Scotland's chefs.

Again, many thanks for your support.

Sunday Lunch with a distinctly local flavour

With so many of our guests asking about Sunday Lunches, we have introduced our version of "The Great Sunday Roast". Freshly prepared, locally reared with wonderful accompanying ingredients sourced right here on our doorstep, it's the perfect excuse to sit together as a family, with friends for a good old natter about the week gone by or coming up.  Every Sunday from 12 noon to 3.00pm - Roast Beef will be on the menu every week and we will also have a different "local" roast on the menu every Sunday.

More and more couples are choosing Ardeonaig for their wedding. Ardeonaig can be booked exclusively for your wedding party. You can host either the wedding ceremony or the wedding reception or both. See the wedding gallery for more information on how your Ardeonaig Wedding might look.   If you would like to make an enquiry, call me or email me to talk about your wedding.
