Congratulations to our Interim Chef, Kevin, who has been recognised as our ‘Chef of the Month’ for January 2019!
A few words from the team:
“Kevin is a real star, he has represented CJUK for many years and always has the clients best interest at heart, he is a hard worker and clients love him. He always goes the extra mile at work and tries to please the client.”
We caught up with Kevin to tell him the good news and to ask him a few questions about his career as a Chef…
How long have you been in the hospitality industry for?
43 years!
How did you get into the industry?
I got into the industry through jobs I had whilst in my last year at school. I always had a keen interest in food and eventually started my career as a Commis Chef in 1976.
What is your favourite thing about working in the industry?
It is a way of life, completely different to the 9-5 norm. I have made most of my life long friends through being a Chef.
What is the best job you have ever had?
A Sous Chef position at a well-known seafood restaurant in the North.
What is your favourite food?
I would eat Chinese food all day!
Best thing about your role?
I really enjoy working for CJUK, especially the diversity and meeting new people. I am always learning new techniques, different menus and there’s some challenging places too.
Could you be a CJUK Chef?
