Priority of the work will go to the chefs better known to CIS until there is a steady flow of work coming in.
Here are a few chefs we have out just now
Scott Maciejewski is currently working at Knipoch Hotel near Oban, Scott has been doing relief work with CIS on and off for a few years now. Scott last year speant most of his time at The Kinloch Lodge Hotel in Skye where he will be returning for 2024 season, he did a couple of short stints at the Boat Inn in Aboyne at the start of this year also. A great chef with excellent feedback.
Fraser Dingwall he is at the Portree Hotel, he has been lucky enough to be kept busy since starting back with CIS last year his first outing being The Oyster Inn in Connell, Portree Hotel, The Dunavon Hotel, Howies in Edinburgh and back in Skye. He tends to get asked back which says a lot its self. Keep up the good work Fraser and hopefully this season will be another busy one
