The Chef - Chef Simon Hulstone

Simon's culinary career started early in his life. By his early teen's he already had several World Junior titles to his name and has been adding to the list to this day with a miriad of awards, including the Roux scholarship for young chefs in 2003 and his latest title of Knorr National Chef of the Year 2008.

Before moving to Torquay, Simon had been perfecting his culinary technique working for highly regarded Michelin star restaurants throughout europe and had been mentored by some of the most respected chef's living today.
