Bolton chef lands semi-final place in prestigious cooking contest

A young chef from Bolton has reached the semi-final of the coveted Roux Scholarship contest, which brings together some of the best emerging chefs in the whole of the UK.

26-year-old Adam Pitfield will be up against 15 other hopefuls at the semi-finals, which will be held in Birmingham next week, and where his work will be judged by iconic chefs including Alain Roux and Angela Harnett.

Should he win the contest, among the top prizes will be a three month placement - or ‘stage’, as it’s called in the cooking business - at any three Michelin Star restaurant in the world.
