‘You could probably say I fell into this line of work,’ laughs Andrew Cook, head chef at Fort William’s award-winning The Lime Tree restaurant.
‘My parents were hotel managers with British Trust Hotels, so I’ve grown up in hotels. My dad is a trained chef as well, so he
was my first head chef.
‘My mum always said if I could do a service with him, I’d be able to do a service with any chef. It was a good grounding.’
Having worked at The Lime Tree previously, the chef left the three star family-run hotel restaurant for a stint at Kilcamb Lodge, the luxury country house hotel at Strontian in Argyll.
He returned to The Lime Tree, when he took up the role of head chef.
