Calling All Foodies: The Horse & Jockey, Wilmslow Appoints Award Winning Chef
The
appointment of the award winning chef and former hotelier Gary Peill and wife
Kate to run the Horse & Jockey, Wilmslow will firmly put the recently
refurbished eating house on the map as a magical and memorable culinary
experience not to be missed.
Having held 9
consecutive AA rosettes Gary has built up a reputation for menu innovation
working with local producers and suppliers. His latest creations include an
eclectic range of tapas including mussels in a garlic, basil and white wine
sauce; spicy meatballs dripping with melted cheese; sumptuous king prawns with
garlic in a delicate Asian curry sauce and a Cheshire Cheese fritter with red
onion marmalade.
For that
moment when morsels are just not enough a freshly filled Peill's Pie of the Day
will be offered, bursting with fillings such as Ham Hock, Chorizo and Leek, Sea
Bass, Salmon, Basil and Brie or Belly Pork, Black Pudding and Baby Onions.
Traditional
favourites such as fish and chips; steak and chips and the house burger all
have the tantalizing touch of Gary's marinades, sauces and sides. Light bites,
seasonal summer dishes and mouth-watering desserts are de rigueur and served
throughout the day. 25p from every portion of chips benefits the local school.
“Food is my
passion,” said Gary “and nothing delights me more than a satisfied customer
walking out the door looking forward to their next visit.”
Throughout
the day treats are in store. Freshly baked cakes accompany steaming, aromatic
coffee. Homemade pork scratchings; honey glazed chipolatas and scotch eggs will
take the edge off any rumbles. And throughout the week specialty nights offer a
food and drink combination that is pleasant on the purse. A sumptuous Sunday
Roast with all the trimmings is set to be a family hit at £9.95.
The interior
has been transformed into cosy and creative nooks and spaces ideal for those
intimate occasions or family gatherings. The informal layout enhances the
eating experience throughout the different areas of the pub. Splashes of
colour, decadent beautifully etched mirrors and a scattering of comfy cushions
make the Horse & Jockey a warm, inviting local.
James
Waddington, Managing Director of Inglenook Inns who own Horse & Jockey,
said: “We have transformed the Horse & Jockey whilst retaining and
enhancing its unique and individual personality. Our customers are our number
one priority and by offering them a stylish, comfortable, accessible pub it
enables us to remain at the heart of the community.”
