New Head Chef Takes Charge Of Modern British Cuisine At Prestigious Russell's - A Restaurant With Rooms In The Cotswolds



     04 Dec 12
An expert in modern British cuisine is bringing new ideas in modern British food to the award-winning Russells – a restaurant with rooms in the heart of the Cotswolds.

Neil Clarke has been appointed head chef at Russells in the historic village of Broadway. His new menu includes Cornish scallops, Local Paddock Farm Pork and Lighthorne Lamb. Neil is also known for serving classic desserts such as Apple Tart Tatin, Soufflé and Créme Brûlée in a new way. 

Neil has worked at several prestigious restaurants in and around Warwickshire. He said: “This is a great opportunity to build on the reputation for fine food we’ve achieved, introduce new ideas and menus and develop our focus on high quality modern British cuisine using fresh locally-sourced ingredients.”

The picturesque village of Broadway is fast becoming a centre for connoisseurs of fine dining, art and history. Russell’s, owned by Andrew and Gaynor Riley, is named after the famous Arts & Crafts furniture designer Sir Gordon Russell whose former home it occupies following extensive renovations of the listed building.

The village also boasts prestigious art galleries and the Russell museum featuring the work of Sir Gordon Russell. Broadway is also an excellent base for walking in the surrounding Cotswold countryside or exploring it by car.

The “restaurant-with-rooms” is originally a French concept. Russell’s is a modern, airy restaurant leading into an informal courtyard. It also has a private dining room. There are seven guestrooms and suites all set in laid-back, stylish surroundings.

Andrew Riley said: “We’re delighted to have Neil as our head chef. He has a deft touch with modern British cuisine and he knows the area. Regular customers have told us they love his additions to the menu and we’re already welcoming discerning new diners who have heard of the excellent choices on offer.”

Russell’s can be found at 20 High Street Broadway, Worcestershire, WR12 7DT.

A recipe for perfect Yorkshire pudding

Image
A lot is spoken about Yorkshire pudding but is in not such a very difficult thing to do. All it is, is a batter mix that is put in a mould with some oil so that it soufflés up as it bakes. As long as you follow a few simple rules then you should have a perfect pudding every time. To make the batter you will need. 125g/8oz plain flour 300ml/¾ pint milk 2 eggs Pinch of salt Some vegetable oil. Now a lot of propel say that you need a strong bread flour to make a god batter for Yorkshire puddings but I have found that over time it does not really matter. But if you are going to use a strong flour let it rest for a little longer to allow the glutens to start working and get soaked up in the liquid . Take you flour and sift it in to a bowel to make sure that you do not get any lumps. Then make a well in the middle and crack your eggs in to that. Now taking a whisk start to work the eggs in to the flour. It will start to from a thick paste. If you think that it is getting to hard to work then
