So many congratulations to Ajay at Swadish on his win, a proud moment for Glasgow!

Representing Scotland at the finals of the Great British Menu is the biggest achievement of my career to date.
I am so honoured to have won this for my family, my staff, my customers and for Scotland. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

This was the toughest day I’ve experienced in any kitchen, I am tired but still buzzing. Cooking a 5 Course meal like that was indescribable and going head to head with Kevin was a rough ride. He is definitely a top chef and I thank him for being such a great opponent - I’ve learnt a lot!

Thank you to the Great British Menu for giving me this fantastic opportunity. Thank you to all of you sincerely from the bottom of my heart for you support and love throughout this process.
See you all soon at Swadish.

Off to the finals. 🙌🏽💪🏽

Firstly I want say how happy and overwhelmed I am with the support I have received so far in my efforts to represent Scotland at the Great British Menu.

My happiness was a little overshadowed by some of the negative comments targeted at my fellow competitor Calum Montgomery who was eliminated last night. My heart goes out to him because he is really a nice guy.

In the heat of the moment and in the mood of competitiveness, we can all lose our boundaries and do things without thinking. It’s very difficult to understand the pressure and the stress in that kitchen until you are there in front of those lights and cameras.

Please remember, this is a competition and we were all doing our best.

Wish you success and strength Calum, it was a pleasure competing with you.

Let’s move on and see what tonight brings. 🍽️🇬🇧
