A famous Nottingham chef and former MasterChef winner has spoken of his excitement ahead of the grand opening of a canalside restaurant which will be "first of its kind" in the city. Laurence Henry was speaking after he was named chef patron at Canal Turn – the restaurant and entertainment space at The Island Quarter development.
Now, Nottingham's very own culinary master has revealed his vision for the restaurant which is hoped to be a real success. The venue will incorporate two distinctive concepts combining the relaxed ambience of a typical British pub on the ground floor and a fine dining experience upstairs.
Chef Laurence Henry, who will be heading up the kitchen and venues, said: "It will be the first venue of its kind in Nottingham because it has a unique concept. The fine dine experience is my baby and I am so excited for it. The last two years were difficult for everyone, including the hospitality industry."
