A Marriage of Flavours Made In Heaven
It’s time to celebrate with one of the finest menus you’ll ever taste, designed by our
Executive Chef to the Knowsley Estate and The Earl and Countess of Derby, Paul Macnish.
“I’ve put my heart and soul into creating dishes that transform quality, carefully sourced
ingredients into something extra special. Superb dishes with sublime texture and tastes that
look amazing and are freshly prepared by the Chefs here at Knowsley Hall. My main concern
is respecting food and ensuring that every plate is treated with the same love and respect,
whether we are creating a dish for one person or over a hundred.”
“May your taste buds live happily ever after!”
Paul Macnish
If you’d like to talk about menu options with our Chef at any time, just ask.
We’ll be happy to help with personal touches that will make your day even more special.
