The fine dining restaurant at The Chester Grosvenor and Spa is celebrating 22 years at the top.
‘Simon Radley at The Chester Grosvenor’ has been awarded a Michelin star for the 22nd year in a row.
The accolade means the fine dining restaurant joins an elite group of only four UK restaurants to ever have been awarded one or more Michelin stars consecutively for more than two decades.
Executive chef Simon Radley said: “Twenty-two years of being awarded Michelin stars is quite an achievement.
“Every single member of staff, from junior chef to part time waiter, in the ‘Simon Radley at The Chester Grosvenor’ restaurant should be extremely pleased.
“It might be my name above the door but every part of the team should rightly take a well-earned bow for winning this accolade year after year.”
Simon is a hands-on chef who is involved in the day to day running of both ‘Simon Radley at The Chester Grosvenor’ and the hotel’s ‘La Brasserie’.
He handpicks suppliers, mentors young up and coming chefs and he is an integral part of the management team that run the grade II listed hotel.
His bespoke menus, ideas for seasonal food and creativity extend as far as the specialist Westminster Suite kitchen which serve the meetings and events held at the five star hotel.
Fine dining is complemented by the extensive wine cellar, with more than 1,000 bins, which is overseen by sommelier Garry Clark.
Managing director Jonathan Slater said: “To win a Michelin star for as long as we have takes discipline, inspiration and a hunger for perfection. This is a magnificent tribute to Simon and his dedicated team.”
