A Lake District spa resort has marked the reopening of its refurbished restaurant with a new head chef.
The W, at Low Wood Bay Resort and Spa at Windermere has undergone a major revamp and at the helm will be Sam Rees.
Sam has moved from the resort’s sister restaurant Blue Smoke on the Bay to work with a team of 18.
Sam said: “The W offers diners an array of new signature dishes including fillet of beef Wellington, starter classics such as Coquilles
St Jacques, and of course the famous Low Wood Bay sticky toffee pudding.
“And we continue to source and promote local produce wherever we can, with the 50-mile cheese trolley featuring artisan cheese makers all
within a 50-mile radius of the Lake District.”
Newly appointed restaurant and banqueting manager at Low Wood Bay Resort & Spa Craig Harrison added: “Attention to detail and innovation has been
a key part of the refurbishment.
“We’re using state-of-the-art wine refrigeration and preservation technology so we can provide an extended list of international wines served by the glass at exactly the right temperature.”
