A Newcastle United chef has picked up a prestigious honour after creating a signature three-course menu that used North East produce as well as showcasing his culinary ability.
Kyle Bowman won the NECTA North East Chef of the Year annual competition that took place at the Crowne Plaza hotel in Newcastle last Thursday, facing off against an extremely high standard of competition, with four other professional chefs.
It was Kyle, who runs the fine-dining operation for match days at St James' Park, who came away victorious, amazing the judges with his North Shields crab starter, goat loin main course, and a locally sourced apple crumble for dessert.
