We are proud to announce that the 2018 Winner of Chef Stagiaire Award is Chris Davis!!
Chris competed against Enrique Garcia de Olalla in the hard fought final at The Hand & Flowers, Marlow, managed by Head Chef Aaron Mulliss, and the judges said the final score sheets were incredibly close so a massive well done to both competitors.
Chris will be jetting of to San Francisco now to work at 3 Michelin star Benu with Chef Patron Corey Lee and his team for 4 weeks, followed by an amazing 2 weeks in the Seychelles at the breathtaking Six Senses Resort.
Watch this space for images and diary entries of the final week and everything the lads got up to.
Thank you to everyone to helped Chef Stagiaire this year, the entrants, the judges, the stage kitchens and their teams, the prize locations and all of their teams, and of course The Hand & Flowers and particularly Head Chef Aaron Mulliss and Chef Patron Tom Kerridge for allowing Chef Stagiaire into their kitchen for the final week.
