Bournemouth hotel names new head chef
Feuillet replaces Chris Rackam, who is retiring after 32 years in the role
Bournemouth based Hotel Miramar has announced the appointment of Robert Feuillet as its new head chef.
Feuillet replaces Chris Rackam, who is retiring after 32 years in the role. He brings many years’ experience as a two- rosette chef in restaurants and hotels across the UK.
Hotel Miramar is a 43 bedroom, four-star hotel, which features Restaurant No 43. It serves dinner and Sunday lunch, with the ocean bar and terrace menu offering everything from lunches and light bites to afternoon tea by the sea.
Hotel manager Theo Iakimov said: “We have calculated that Chris and his team have prepared hundreds of thousands of meals, including over ninety thousand Sunday lunches and around five thousand Christmas day dinners.
“We have appointed Rob to oversee the culinary direction of the hotel, continuing the excellent reputation that Chris has established. Food always has, and always will be a big part of the Miramar experience and we are excited to continue delighting our patrons with fabulous food.”
Feuillet added: “I have enjoyed the handover period with Chef Chris and his legacy is in safe hands. Hotel Miramar will continue to offer seasonal, locally sourced menu options, and I look forward to meeting guests who dine with us.”
